Foreigner On My Own Front Porch

An American Memoir

De: Travis Casey

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

After twenty-two years abroad, Travis Casey figured coming home would feel familiar. Instead, it feels like stepping into a country that speaks his language but doesn’t quite understand him. In Foreigner On My Own Front Porch, he returns to Minnesota to help his aging parents—only to discover that the hardest part isn’t the move, the paperwork, or the emergencies. It’s navigating the everyday American oddities he never noticed before… and the new ones that seem to appear on schedule.

With a sharp eye, a dry wit, and a survival-grade tolerance for bureaucracy, Travis chronicles hospital runs, small-town culture shocks, and the constant friction between “the way things are done” and common sense. Part memoir, part cultural commentary, and fully tongue-in-cheek, this sequel to Foreigner In My Own Backyard is a funny, frank look at family, identity, and what it means to be a stranger—right on your own front porch.
Inside, you’ll find:

• A crash course in Midwestern life after decades away
• Family emergencies, small victories, and the comedy hiding in the chaos
• A front-row seat to the quirks of American systems and social rules
• Stories that prove you don’t have to cross a border to feel foreign
