the word you're looking for is nostalgia, right? "nostos" means homecoming, and "algos" means intense pain. Which means suffering from your need to return to your place of origin. Sth like being really, reaaally homesick i guess. I'm Greek and we learn ancient Greek at school..When we did The Odyssey, they almost brainwashed that with that word :p
