"Home regions are culturally constructed and geographically and historically contingent. They exist to serve fundamental individual and group needs, and, as human constructs and cultural products, they also sustain these needs. Indeed, every human activity or experience to some degree affects the delineation of a home context. In this way, a lifeworld becomes a collage of overlapping and ever-transforming personal and collective geographies, a system of irregularly shaped nodal regions that correspond to homes of individuals or groups of individuals. "
