"My parents moved us around a bit when we were kids, and I questioned where or what home even was. Eventually, I realized I walk around my home every day. It isn't stuff or a house. My body is my home, and I take it with me everywhere I go. So I'm never homesick."

This question assesses your psychological state, and depending on your response, may tell the interviewer whether you are ready to take this big step outside of your comfort zone or if you have reservations about leaving home. There is no right or wrong answer. Even if you are nervous, that's okay.
You don't necessarily need to describe your house or where you came from. Focus on a safe space, your happy place, that puts you at ease. It can be next to the fireplace during the holidays or on the beach, staring at the sunset.
