This research explored the lived experience of voluntary migration employing Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The findings suggest home exists as an ever-shaping multifaceted matrix of emotions, interactions, experiences and environments. Notions of belonging and identity emerged as fluid and flexible - morphing through shifting contexts and changing situations. The journey of migration is often perceived as a transitional experience through which loss and disorientation give way to gradual adaptation, accomplishment and self-actualisation - revealing its non-pathological nature. A variety of approaches and perspectives are reviewed, embracing contradictions and similarities alike to reflect a notion inherent to the phenomenon of migration - diversity.
