Sam Frearson-Tubito is a third-generation global nomad who has raised four fourth-generation global nomads. Her children now live across the world - in Portland, Oregon; San Francisco; Sydney; and Barcelona - while Sam and her husband live in Italy, the fifteenth country she has called home. A lifelong animal lover, Sam shares her life with her golden retriever, Khaya, whose name means 'home' in Swahili, a quiet tribute to her years growing up in Africa.Sam believes identity is shaped less by where we are from and more by who we are. She is more likely to ask someone what their story is than where they come from. For her, home is an amalgamation of places, people, languages, memories, and love - something carried rather than fixed.Through her writing and talks, she supports globally mobile individuals and families navigating questions of identity and belonging. She writes about life across cultures, home, and third-culture identity. Her work invites readers to reconsider what it means to be-long in a world where home is no longer a single place.
