    • Migration should be understood as an embedded aspect of daily routines and life transitions, not solely as a distinct event.
    • The proposed conceptualization offers a richer understanding of migration's complexities.

    Conclusions:

    • An everyday life perspective provides a more comprehensive framework for studying contemporary migration, applicable globally.
    • Future research should explore the implications of this situated approach for both developed and developing world contexts.
