Abstract

A childhood home is often seen as a person’s ‘real’ home. It is associated with feelings of nostalgia, a sense of security and an inseparable part of one’s own history. Children of military personnel who lived on, or nearby, later closed military bases in foreign countries, are often unable to return to their childhood homes. This thesis aims to broaden the knowledge on the place attachment of the childhood home and the perception of home of adult third culture kids, who are not able to return to the place they grew up in. The research focuses on children of military personnel, who lived in a Dutch community in Germany.
