The Journey Home
As Asians set down new roots around the world, home is no longer a fixed destination, explains Pico Iyer. It is as much a favorite dish, a memory or an idea as it is an old house. In this special issue, TIME invites some of the Asian diaspora's top writers to embark on physical and mental voyages of return
Where do you come from?" "what do you call home?" The simplest questions these days bring ever more complex answerswhen they bring answers at all. Which is another way of saying that the fundamental, defining questions of any life have been spun around and sometimes exploded in the modern, mongrel world.

From the lead story in the new edition of Times. This may resonate strongly with my fellow sajha nivasis.
Happy Dashain to all.
