What does "home" mean to you?
In her October editor's letter, CITY Magazine's Leah Stacy writes:
"Editing this issue has solidified my belief that home is a state of mind; a state of being. A person's arms around us. A voice on the phone, even if it's miles away. A good meal around a table full of people we love. A city where we find ourselves. And perhaps, a longing for an even greater destination beyond this life."
"Home" is the theme of this month's issue of the magazine, and each story explores a different take on the word.
The CITY team joins us this hour to discuss it.
