39 Moves in 20 Years

Follow me on:

Family with Moving BoxesI came across this article in the New York Daily News about a woman who just completed a memoir entitled: 'No Place Like Home: A Memoir in 39 Apartments'. It's a great look through one woman's experience moving and how unique each home was, yet at the end of the day the author found that home was more about the community, the people she met and her next door neighbors, than the inside space of each apartment.

While I've moved a lot in my life (and am in the midst of planning the next one), I, too, have never felt too much connection to the physical space of the house or apartment, rather, it's always been about where we are - the new experiences and people. And about traveling to new countries, cities and towns, while staying in place for a while.

I'm curious to find out why you move and how many times and where you might be moving next. Share your moving story with us by checking out our reader response form.
