The Meaning of Home to Me

A home to me is full of family, and friends and full of laughter, love and smells of cologne or favourite foods like kebab or shawarma and good vibes and memories. It is a comfortable place to stay and do anything and my mom yells at dinner time so I go upstairs and I see kebab. Home to me is playing soccer with friends and family and scoring the game while blasting music. The music that I love listening to is rap and just chilling in my bed until my brother comes in and wants to play a game with me. The game was Fortnite and Prized Goods. He wants to seek a hug. To me, home is warmth and love. A home to me is grandparents. A home to me is to sleep and have fun. A home to me is everyone. Fasting for Ramadan and on the last day every family members come for Eid to eat and play for the 30 days of fasting. We have a big feast like kebab, shawarma, and dolma, and cousins sit around, waiting for dinner to be ready to eat and smell different family members' perfumes. That is a home to me.
