【2025原创】I grew up in Michigan, but I left many years ago to study
and work in other places. In 2015, after a long time away, I returned for a
school party called a class reunion. I was excited to see my old hometown and
especially the two houses where I lived as a child and teenager.

When I arrived, I felt like a tourist. Even though this was the town where I
was born and grew up, many things seemed new. It was a strange feeling!
First, I visited Troy, the town where I lived as a teenager. My old house
was still there, and it brought back memories. Some things outside had changed,
but it mostly looked the same. I also drove around and saw new shops that
weren’t there before.
The next day, I went to my old high school for the reunion. The outside of
the school looked familiar, but the inside had changed a lot. It was great to see
old classmates and share stories about our lives.

Later, I went to Milford, my childhood town. The old forest where I used to
walk my dog was gone! Now, there were new houses there. My childhood home
was still standing and looked well cared for by its new owners.
Seeing all these changes made my old towns feel like new places. Things
change over time. Returning to your hometown after many years can really make
you feel like a tourist, even in the place you know best.#8
