Nomad. I am a nomad who does not stay years in a certain place. I may be a wanderer... but this is my life. Meaning to say, I am ok living having a few things. For me this is a chance of new culture, new people to meet, new possibilities of friends. By the way, moving from one place to another is part of the job. But if there is one thing I miss staying in a place or in a certain permanent home is having a pet. I miss playing with dogs or cats. i miss the wagging tail as I come home and an eager face to see what I brought home. Awww I miss... Are you okay being a nomad also?

I was very restless in my young adult days. Then I took my mom to her homeland Latvia, met my soul mate and stayed there for 20+ years just visiting the US and now that my love is gone I am back in the US in Florida and this time I will stay for a while and then hope to see my hometown NYC

yes, it is quite late for me, because I don't belong to young adult days anymore, but still I found this enjoyable, liberating.

I think it is fine for single people. I am single but I need to take good care of my immediate family first. If they are fine, then I can do this kind of job your doing and that is working in the field.

Probably if I do not have family, I will be okay with that scenario. I like traveling also but still at times, you will really miss home. What is your work by the way?

You seem to have a traveler's mindset where you love to explore things besides the place where you live in. Well I am not a nomad I want normalcy in life by staying in one place and trying to get the best from the place I stay. When I travel I travel for pleasure where I want to explore things when I can afford to do so and I have free time to do so. But when it xcomes to work as much as I want to stay put where I am.

yes this is business and pleasure at the same time. fortunatey if I will choose to stay in a place it is also possible and doable. it is also nice to just travel for pleasure.

@Mavic123456 Yes there nothing wrong with either its how you enjoy life that matters. For me, it might be very difficult for me that I do work and pleasure at the same time but for you it may be your life and happiness.

I think I like to be a nomad. I get bored easily and I want changing places often. But that is not possible for me right now. I love travelling with family to different provinces and cities here in my country

being a nomad is a part of the job. it's fun I just can't have pets that's it. It is fun to travel with family alsso. Does your family live to province where you travel. or just for a holiday?

i think it's okay if you have a regular source of income that doesn't care where you live, as long as you report on time every day and do your work properly during work hours.
