[Andy HoboTraveler.Com Travel Blog Vol II] I do not have a Home

I do not have a Home
Choosing the correct words is a difficult task.

I told a couple of Philippines people,
“I have traveled continuously for over 10 years.”
This did not mean anything to them…

They continued to ask,
“When do you go home?”

I said,
“I do not have a home to return too.”
“I am a homeless person.”

I am going to change my choice of words in this blog! to explain how long I have traveled. People assume and never stop assuming that all people have a home and that any person visiting will soon be returning home.

I must say,
“I have not had a home for 10 years, there is no reason to return, there is no home to return too.”

It is annoying to try to explain to people how long I have traveled; the normal person is not capable of envisioning a life without a home. I use the words Home in a way to make my family feel comfortable. People feel a mother and father need to say they have a home; the worst thing you can say is you are homeless.

I am a homeless traveler.

I am extremely happy to not live in a trap called a home, I am grateful to have escaped the need to possess, own, or buy material possessions, I am a free man.

I do not have a Home
