Hi guys,
So just a bit of background, I was born in the Philippines and we moved over to the UK. We first moved to England then after 2 years we had to move to a channel island cause my mother had said yes to a job offer. After 6 years (I was 19 at the time) I decided I couldn't live here anymore. I moved back to England and lived there for 2 years independent but unfortunately I had to move back home.
Moving back home feels like your life is back to being "still". I live in a very quiet and small place where everybody knows each other. It's very hard to meet new people here and to me it's very depressing as I love being in the city and meeting new people. I have been back for a year and 3 months and I am now at that point where I cannot wait to get out of here again.
Being here makes me question how people can live here in their younger years? I mean there is nothing wrong with that but in my opinion there is no progress. The place is the same, people is the same and everybody knows your business. I'm too young to feel this old. In my opinion, small towns are for people who wants to settle down and retire. I believe that we should travel and explore while we're young and able.
A lot of my friends are settling down and getting married, even having kids.. I just think there is so much more to life than relationships but we all have a different perspective, this is just mine.
Living in a small town is a comfort zone. I believe that people should explore more and experience to live in a bigger town.
