America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
Where have you lived?
Published on April 21, 2005 By Moderateman In History
I have wondered if Americans are a nomadic culture, I am 58 years old and here is where I have lived {for more than 30 days}

New York State
Washington State
Ohio
Michigan
Oregon
California
Colorado
Florida
New jersey
Japan
Vietnam {south}
The Philippines

How about you? Remember the rules 30 days or more as a resident not a visitor

That's because I moved away then came back and moved to a different town. I'm 33, and have always considered myself nomadic.

do I smell a possible book in the making?


Yes, a few, actually. I'm trying to use ad revenue from my sister site to help fund it (so far, not much, but I'm hoping my regular readers will start making a practice of visiting the site and clicking on ads).

The sister site, btw, is at Link

"moving around, preaching the Gospell?"
Not exactly that kind of Reverend. This could develop into a really long story, so let's just go with this - if you know the show Northern Exposure, and the character Chris Stevens, you have an idea what I mean.

"or just like to move around?"
This could also easily slide into a really long story with possible flashbacks, flash-forwards and maybe even a flash-diagonal or two. I don't want to torture everyone, though. Suffice it to say, I developed a severe case of wanderlust at a very young age.

just a few places in the great state of texas could be moving like crazy... uzbekistan? now that is intresting.


Yeah, Texas is huge and the lifestyle and look of the land is so different from place to place. I've lived in the tiny little town (under 600 people)of Lefors, Midland, Amarillo, San Antonio (my favorite), and Houston for a short bit.

When Adrian deployed, he spent several months working in the prison facility in Bagram, Afghanistan (hahahha...the prisoners called him "doctor asshole"), and then the rest of the time working in a make-shift hospital in Uzbekistan. He didn't get to see much of Uzbekistan, but he said that the weather there was not great...and the culture is different because of the Russian influence. He liked working at Bagram, but Uzbekistan not so much.
