A Place to Land: A Story of Longing and Belonging

Where is my home?

This is the story of a woman who watched “home” slip away again and again—through her parents’ divorce, a foreclosure, two international moves, ten rental homes in ten years, and her mother’s terminal battle with cancer. Add in the challenge of cross-cultural marriage, and Kate Motaung was constantly adapting to a new environment. When home is supposed to be synonymous with love and comfort and safety, unpredictable and unwelcome life events—even the chosen but challenging ones—can shake you to your core.

A Place to Land is a globe-spanning memoir that wrestles with the question, “Where is my home?” Motaung authentically shares her brokenness over the divorce of her parents, her gnawing grief over her mother’s death, and the joys and sorrows of her cross-cultural life. Whether or not your struggles are similar to Kate’s—divorce, grief, financial uncertainty—you’ll feel her losses and grow through yours.

Journey with Kate across two continents to find the answer to one of life’s great questions: no matter where we go or what we do, this world is not our home.
