Readers’ Comments

  • The book is amazing! I have read it from beginning to end and just could not put it down.

  • Thank you does not even begin to express what I want to say ... anybody that has lived abroad for whatever reason can feel represented in the situations, moments, difficulties and friendships shared in the book.

  • I am about halfway through the book and I find it beyond wonderful! What different yet similar stories about background, family and growing up.

  • Leaving home is a universal human experience, beautifully captured by Bianca in these interviews. Each story is different and the rich diversity of responses and cultures shines through, while still staying grounded in our common search for a place to belong, to call home.

  • A beautiful insight into what home means to any of us. It is for people who themselves have found homes in new places, but also for those wanting to let their loved ones in on the experience of being an immigrant or an expat.

  • This book unites people ... it explores universal themes and emotions, making it relatable and accessible across cultures and generations.

  • Homeunbound is not a book you will read once, it is a book you will read over and over again, finding something new each time. These stories, for the most part, are not about epic wins or heroic journeys, but stories of ordinary people navigating the varied and complex emotions that arise when we move away from home. I love it more each time I open it.
