It's a First World country with a lot many amenities and comforts for its citizens. But it really takes a lot to connect with the locals and never really feels like home...

I instantly felt "at home" in India (no time needed to "get used to"). I also felt super-comfortable in Italy and English countryside (but not inside towns/cities).

Actually, I am curious about immigrants who say life here is not different- especially those from India or Asian countries. Reason being is are these people usually hanging out with other desis/Asians/foreign students? This is a subculture and different than "American culture" because communicating/interacting is a bit different with Americans- and relating- Maybe this is what she means by America is not home, but can't verbalise it? It's hard to relate to people without some effort put into the process. Newbies have a lot of effort to put into relating....What do you think? This is interesting post, actually.
