We all live in an interconnected world where travelling and migrating has became a norm. It became so common that at times, some of us have multiple identities. To me, the term 'Holiday Memories' reminded me of my experiences, a sense of home and transparency. Having to live in New Zealand at a very young age and coming back to Singapore permanently, made me felt like I've never belonged to any specific country. Whenever my family took a Holiday trip back to New Zealand, it felt like home, vice versa when I am back in Singapore. Do we all belong to one home? What defines our home ? What defines our identity? In my research, I decided to re-collate memories as I reconstruct a new identity for myself.
