Serendipity

I saw somewhere, can’t remember where, that the average person moves 11 times during their life.

I’ve moved 7 times, not sure 1 of the moves counted as it was back in with my Mum post getting divorced.

Thinking of moving again now.

I'm currently on my 8th. One of those was a student accommodation but I still considered it my home

I am ahead of the game then! By my mid 20's I had moved 14 times, 12 times in one 5 year spell, lost count then!

There and to the left a bit

Think I'm currently up to 17 and might even be more as I'm not sure I remember all of the various addresses I had before I was about 7

So far only twice.

I have no real desire to move away from my hometown at the moment.

I do feel tied here to look after my parents as they age though because I am an only child.

but who knows what the future may bring and where it will take me.

5 different addresses as a student, and moved twice since then - although I'm open to the idea of moving to a completely different part of the country, the logistics of actually moving out me off slightly

Actual having to move my belongings would be 5 times. Not counting moving from my family home to my own place. I quite like moving because I get rid of stuff I don’t need.

My favourite move was when my landlord owned two properties right next door to each other and the other house had been painted throughout with new carpets throughout and I was literally just taking everything from one house right next door and putting everything in it’s place straight away, even my clothes still on the hangers, was taking them straight into my room as both places had fitted wardrobes.
