Where do you belong when the world has shaped you to become you? This isn’t just my story. It could be yours too. I stumbled through New Delhi with hope, bloomed in the Netherlands after moments that could have silenced me, and found both hurdles and breakthroughs in Germany’s silent libraries and sunlit halls. I’ve faced failure, isolation, and rock bottoms yet chosen resilience, reinvention, and joy, all stitched across continents. This is no fairy tale. It’s the messy, honest truth of starting over again and again, of rising when the world says no, of carving purpose in the in-between. If you’ve ever felt like a misfit, an expat, a dreamer, or someone searching for where you truly belong, this book is for you. This book is a love letter to your persistence, to your magic of showing up for yourself, and to your courage of creating home within, no matter where you land. My journey is still unfolding. Maybe yours is too. Shall we walk a little of it together?
