About every 18-24 months.

I moved away 4.5 years ago, I’ve been home once (mostly due to Covid) ideally I’d like to visit once a year. Realistically probably will visit once every other year.

similar situation as in … being a student ? depends what ties you have to your home-home, how affordable are the flights (unless they are offered to you) …

while paying for my own travels, I started with 4 times a year, now I had not been for 2 years almost, and its only a 2h flight. but my kids father still goes 4-6 times a year, as he gets involved in some local art projects …

For 12 years, I went annually. Tickets were cheap and I could go for long weekends. Then we moved to NZ and I haven’t been back since then. Been back to my 2nd home country once since moving to NZ.

It’s cost and time rather than anything else. Travel time alone is 3 days. Then tickets for 5 and my annual leave for the year is approx 17 days.

Twice, during summer holidays and xmas

Few weeks ago was the first time I went home in 12 years. Despite the desire to go home more often, it is the cost of flights that is the main issue. Making the next trip happen in 2 years time

i went back and forth from the Us every 6 months when i was in grad school in italy.

My dad is getting old, so once a year for me, for the foreseeable future.

I haven’t come back since I left 6 years ago. First I was sorting out my papers and didn’t really feel like it, then there was Covid and after that was over we had a baby. Hopefully next year we will be able to go as I’m already starting to idealize my country. But I guess when you become a parent things change massively as in you start to long for your “tribe” and kind of look back to your roots. Not that I want to move back, it’s just the perception of your native country changes with time and change of status. At least that’s been the case for me.

I’ve lived abroad for 6 years and have been home twice. When I was in grad school here I didn’t go home at all during the program.

We have a lot of friends and family. So we come back for the summer every year.

Once or twice a year for 2-3 weeks at a time. I would maybe go more often if I could afford first class. I really hate flying

I haven’t visited my home country for 2 years as I don’t really miss my home country. Plus I don’t like a long haul flight.

Not very often. I’ve probrobly been home 5-6 times since 2005

Twice a year at least (Christmas and summer), but that is because there are direct flights and it is like 2.5h away costing around 200€
