American Peace Corps Volunteers, Japanese Volunteers or United Nation Volunteers in Latin America bring back their experiences and new found memories that have changed their person. And it isn’t just volunteers who experience these changes, military families, students, missionaries, and business executives do as well. Coming home is a challenge with special benefits that remain with us.What author Craig Storti brings us in The Art of Coming Home is an awareness of the changes in those of us who have lived overseas, but also in the family and friends we left at home. He provides a “manual” to consider the many benefits of living in a host country, and sharing what we have brought back…both our country and our host country reap the benefits of our experience. As an Army brat before I became a Peace Corps Volunteer in Colombia, my family moved every two or three years within the USA or overseas. Home was where we happened to be at the time, but memories were always kept in our scrapbooks or photo albums. . . to remember and share!Now with “selfies” and WhatsApp so much a part of our lives, we can share memories with our host families to see where we came from, and on reentry, we can show our families and friends what we did with our hosts in their respective communities. We are not far away anymore.Returning expats may see coming home as temporary, planning to return to their host country for visits, maintain contact with their “new” friends, or even marry. The challenge is to see and understand that we change, our family and friends change . . . even our Host families and friends change. Use the experience that you gained and what you left behind both at home and overseas to see yourself as a better person. Coming Home is the manual that can open doors to who you are and what you plan to do with the new you! Personnel officers need to listen to their expats or new employees or students . . . we want to share our experience!Keep this manual with you when you have doubts. Share when you get excited someone really wants to hear about your experience. Then con them into taking the challenge and go live in another culture! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adresses little known "reverse culture shock" thoroughly. *by B***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2019* Reverse culture shock is not a joke, but a real emotional and physical reaction to coming back "home," Anyone planning on going away for a long time should read this book, as reverse culture shock is usually never mentioned in trip preparations. He articulates this experience clearly and explores its effects with various types of ex-pats. The author articulates the experience from many angles (return to routine, change in friendships, not being a "star", etc.) There are chpters for diffeerent goups such as business, missionary, student, etc. At first, I thought they might not be relevant but i found many useful nuggets of wisdom even in the specifically-oriented chapters. I would recommend anyone who will be gone for a long time to read this so they are prepared for re-entry. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Art of Coming Home *by T***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2011* The Art of Coming Home is an excellent introduction to a little known or understood concept: reverse culture shock. When a loved one suffers and you strive to learn how to help, a book like this is invaluable and makes all the difference in understanding the problem and implementing a solution. The author thoroughly describes the phenomenon and carefully guides the reader toward a compassionate understanding and positive choices to support that loved in "coming home". Interestingly, my work often involves dealing with people whose lives are affected by what has been termed "institutionalization" - which I learned from this book is yet another form of culture shock. So, this book has helped me on both a personal and professional level. I highly recommend it.
