There is a(n old) Danish proverb saying:
Ude godt, men hjemme bedst.
Wikiquote's
Translation: It's good to be out (and about), but at home is best.
Possible Interpretation: Seeing different things (cultures) is good, but we still prefer our own way of life.
Possible Interpretation: Can also be meant as a acknowledgement of you or someone else being homesick.

  1. Yes, we possibly need both: get input outside and come back into familiar surroundings. Leads to an open mind and inner balance.

  9. You seem to prefer being "out and about", are you ever homesick?

  10. I'd be homesick when out and about would mean I couldn't do what I love (namely writing, paiting, drawing, creating). But I guess you've found a way to do what you love whilst being out and about.
