Did you travel back to Ireland over Christmas? If so, what have you got up to, and what have your impressions of Ireland been?
What was the first thing you did when you arrived back? How did it feel to be “home”? Have things changed much in your hometown since your last visit? Was this Christmas different to last? How did it compare to those you had while you still lived here? How did you feel about leaving again?
We're compiling some stories and reflections for a feature for Weekend Review this Saturday. Share yours in the comments section below, or send us an email to emigration@irishtimes.com with 'Home for Christmas' in the subject line, plus a photo if you have one. Thanks.
