Would you prefer o live all your life in one place or to move a few times? Or live in one place but travel a lot?
I would defnitely want to travel a lot. And I do not imagine myself to live in one place for longer than a decade.

I guess I have moved a few times from schoool to school, and as such I have moved places a few times as well. However now I am back at my parents house for this year, until I find a job and live on my own. I do not want to stay in one place because I do kind of consider myself as a citizen of this world.

There are many wonderful places in this world and I want to experience as much of it as I can until I die.

My dream vacation is to travel for 6 or so months around the northern parts of the world. From Sweden, trough Finland or Norway, trough Russia via the trans-syberian railway to Japan, or vice versa. Maybe include Iceland, Greenland and Canada.

It's weird. I have the urge of wandering, but I'm so jaded that I think no matter where I go, everything will be the same.

I'd like to move a few times, but every time I move I'd move to a new country.

There aren't too many countries I'd like to live in, but the ones I do want to live in I'd like to live in for a long time, primarily the USA and Japan, and maybe Israel because I always wanted to live in a 1st world country that somehow manages to be a complete shithole.

What are some nice things that a lainon can watch to get to feeling of traveling?

It's called wanderlust.

While it would be nice to move along every so often deciding where you want to be, the world is not open to that level of flexibility. It would mean that you are in control of your life and we can't have that now can we?

Personally, I have no interest in facing homelessness anytime soon so I'll stick to what I know. I feel as though moving to another country/city and dropping everything from your past as many of us daydream about requires a real shocking event that no one really wants to have.

That alone is what probably drives most of the successful stories you hear about. Otherwise, if you have a safety net to fall back on you'll never put the effort you would have.

Although, I am a coward and I have not travelled extensively.

>Sedimentary
I think you mean sedentary

I moved around a lot as a kid, so I do have a nomadic spirit. I love going for walks and hikes, or just exploring urban and natural areas
I find committing to one place of settlement difficult

I would love to travel, but I lack the money, the plan (there's too many places I want to go), or the underlying motivation
Like many, my romanticism far outweighs reality

I don't want to rely on my safety net.

And in fact yes, burning some bridges is helpful, but it is not neccessary. It's fine as long as you don't have people dragging you back on your responsibilities.

"I've always wanted to get as far as possible from the place where I was born.
Far both geographically and spiritually. To leave it behind ... I feel that
life is very short and the world is there to see and one should know as much
about it as possible.One belongs to the whole world, not just one part of it."
-Paul Bowles

Trains.

Satellites.

Sometimes airplanes, but I always feel like satellites are better.

>TO OP

For the first nineteen or so years of my life, I lived in one town. My family moved a few times, but my last bedroom was mine for about a decade. Then recently I moved to very nearly the other side of the planet. I think I would fall in the class of people who want to live many different places.

Go somewhere. Somewhere where you would not normally go. Guessing you are in the 'developed world', leave it. See something as strange and as weird and as different as you can find it. Not just as a tourist, go there to spend a considerable time, live there like a person who lives there, or as close as you can get it.

If you are paralyzed, get over it. See something different and if it is the same then at least you can say that its all the same with the authority of someone who has seen it with his own eyes and lived in it and as a person who truly knows it to be true.
