Homecoming Reflections

In The Ball Park

After 15 months abroad—and nine months of creating Moment Maker’s Daily vlogs—Michael Serpell has officially returned home to Australia, reunited with family and friends. From mentoring creatives and co-teaching documentary programs in Guatemala and Mexico, to rediscovering the importance of rest, recovery, and family connection, this vlog captures this powerful transition and all the life-changing realisations along the way. 

Michael shares how his time abroad shaped his understanding of purpose, storytelling, and social impact. He opens up about the lessons learned from authenticity, the cultural insights gained in North and Central America, and the joy of standing alongside filmmakers as they premiered their documentary stories to the local community.

As he settles back home, Michael looks ahead with gratitude and excitement —continuing to tell stories that matter, building community through creativity, and inspiring others to embrace their own journey of authenticity.
