My family's moving house next week.

I've moved so many times that I've lost count!  The first time I was 6, then at 11 then when I was 25 I moved to the USA, and my parents and siblings moved to another house.  I moved again after 1 year, then again after 2 years, then my parents and family moved again.  Lets see, after 1 year I moved again (the last two were with my girlfriend at the time), then I moved out from her after 1 year, then bought my first place after another 18 months (and married my first wife).  Then moved back to England, was in one place about a year, then bought a place in Fulham.  After another 15 months I moved back to the States.  Lived in that apartment for 8 years and then bought the house I am in now.  My parents moved about 10 years ago, and I was back in London for 15 months in 2004/5.  You get used to it, but the packing is the worst!
So many pickups, so little time

i dislike moving.. ok, its always an organisational stress.. i can handle that, but it takes me ages to get used to a new place.

My uni tutor calls me Mark the Nomad, in the 3 years he has known me I've lived in three completely separate areas.. I have no roots or attachments to a house or area.

Make the most of it Indy. Life is about what's ahead of you, you'll only leave behind what you choose to.
I moved around alot and most of those moves were big ones. I lived in Ilfracombe for the most important years (teens) and then I moved to Wiltshire, to begin with I hated it but after a while I realised that where you are is a very small part of a huge picture, who's in your life (despite distance), what your doing with life, these are more pressing issues focus on them instead.

moving is amazing, in fact I hate living in the same place for too long. I don't even miss my first house where I grew up, I prefer the new one I live in (with parents). I cant deny moving wasnt stressfull! thats an understatement, when you have to manually move all the household objects one by one. I'm going to be on my own as a student from september, so you have an advantage as you will be with parents, regardless, you'll get used to it.
