Sometimes it feels like the joke is on me but I’ve always lived in MN. When I applied for jobs elsewhere, I’d be offered one here. When I take a job here, they put me on a plane to spend my weekdays elsewhere but this is still home base.
My parents moved away for 17 years, but they came back to still find me here.
I was raised largely in Texas but not born there. We moved away from the state where I was born when I was 2 years old. First to Arkansas, then finally to Texas at age 5.
In Spain there’s separate two legal concepts for “address”: residencia (where you’re most likely to sleep) and domicilio (your permanent address). Currently my residencia is in a different province, although at least it’s in Spain (which hasn’t always been the case), but my domicilio is in the same province where I was born and grew up. I chose the second option.
I’ve always lived in Quebec (except for two stretches of a few months in Italy) but I’m actually born in Ontario. So the way the question is phrased, I have to answer no.
I still live in the same town where I was born. Never wanted to live anywhere else.
Since the hospital that I was born in is now a care center for the elderly it is entirely possible that I may one day die in the same building, or even the same room, that I was born in.
We were like fish swimming upstream a couple years ago when we moved back to the state of my birth. They practically paid us to drive a U-Haul *into *Michigan.
Born in Los Angeles, but my parents moved east to the DC area when I was 4. I grew up in Virginia, not California. I could move back to Virginia in a meaningful sense, but the idea of moving ‘back’ to California is nonsense when my memories of living there are so dim, and my connections so weak.
I was born in Scotland, but we moved when I was 10 months old, first to Canada, then, when I was three, to Arkansas, where I lived until I graduated college.
Then I spent a year in Colorado and three years in DC/Maryland, before putting my back out at the gym while visiting my Mom in Arkansas. I ended up staying for about a year, at the end of which I chose leaving as a desperate alternative to suicide. Hitchhiked to Colorado and spent several years there before moving to California a few months ago.
I wouldn’t move back to Arkansas unless I had no choice, and if I knew I would have to live in the small town my Mom lives in I wouldn’t wait a year; I’d get out as soon as I could dead or alive.
No. From East TN, moved to the Gulf of the Mexico. Georgous emerald green water. Sugar/snow-colored beaches that I really like. But I feel like the girl in Heidi…all I wanna do is get back home…
Have always lived in NSW.
Been a couple of stints of 1-2 months in Melbourne (shhh, don’t tell kambuckta) but never needed to change my postal address.
Mind you, the distance between where I was born and where I was brought up is almost two thousand kms and I now live roughly equidistant
