Home refers to something that people do experience, and something, moreover, held in high regard. In this respect, home has meaning on social, emotional, spiritual and material levels. It is a complex and multi-dimensional concept, and any concept needs to be attuned to the dynamic meaning making process people attribute
to it (Leith, 2006)
