A young man who spent ten years abroad stirred reactions on social media after he reportedly returned with just one travelling bag.

In a viral TikTok video, the young man was seen in the company of a few friends at his family's residence, trying so hard to surprise his mother and sister.

Notably, he arrived with just a single travelling bag, which ignited mixed reactions from netizens.

While it remains unclear whether he had additional luggage that was simply out of view, many online users expressed surprise that he returned with so little after spending ten years abroad.

An emotional mother and sister could not let go of their beloved's embrace after seeing him for the first time in a decade.
