I envy (in a good way) folks like you who have lived in one place for such a long time. There is such a sense of community

. My family has moved from one place to another for the past 100 years

. I have personally lived among three cultures, and four places that were a world apart from each other. I always used to envy (in a good way) my friends whose parents new each other, the school principal used to know their parents, etc. Although I learned a lot from the different cultures and I adapted myself like a chameleon and I was accepted quite easily by every society I always longed for a sense of belonging to a specific place. It's great that you have such a strong connection to one place

.
