Are we settled now?

All the places I once called home!

I was counting the number of places I lived in recently and this number seemed completely unreasonable... so I decided to blog about it mostly for my wife so she can see that it may well be the time to settle. Although things were quite stable at first (I actually lived for the first 18 years in a single place), it all changed once I moved out of my mom's place!

In case you are wondering, no I'm not 65 but only 36 years old...ok almost 37 now.
