The present
The history is telling us that human migration (of tribes), existed at the beginning of times. It is explained that historical migration of human populations begins with the movement of Homo erectus out of Africa across Eurasia about a million years ago. Homo sapiens appear to have occupied all of Africa about 150,000 years ago, moved out of Africa 70,000 years ago, and had spread across Australia, Asia and Europe etc. Also I have learned in school about nomadic people: communities of people who move from one place to another, rather than settling permanently in one location. Apparently there are still nomadic people nowadays belonging to cultures that have traditionally been nomadic, but we are also made to believe that traditional nomadic behavior is increasingly rare in industrialized countries. 

I feel nomad, still. I think a lot of people of my generation are nomad. How many of you are living in the same village or town where you were borne? How many of your parents are still living in the same place they were borne? I have been living in 3 countries and this is not exceptionally…I know people that would laugh about my 3 poor locations…And still I am not sure I will not change again the place I am now. It is like the new generation of nomadic people, we are not searching for better places to hunt or to feed our animals but for better places to work and live (another way of hunting). This is something some are willing to do and decided to go for it and some other, not. I don’t know which the best solution is. What is important from my point of you is not to forget living the present. I was moving, I know I am still having chances to move again and thinking of this I can postpone…or even give up of some life style. I do not buy this because if I am moving again will be difficult to carry it around. I don’t buy that because… I don’t know how long I am going to be in this place etc. Why should I buy a good bed and a good mattress for my back and bounds…if I will have to move again, I am renting the apartment, for sure I will have to move. Most of us are thinking like this but from 24 hours we are spending at least 8 are in bed so 1/3 of our life…I don’t buy a lot of books for the same reason so I read less or a read on line which is dangerous for my eyes. I don’t buy a couch for my friends and than I wonder why they don’t want to come by, I don’t buy things for the kitchen to facilitate  the cooking and than I wonder why I spend money in a restaurant or why what I am cooking is not amazing…Are you recognizing this? If yes, remember wherever you will be or you will move, you are living in the present: eating, sleeping, reading, loving etc. Don’t spare the present pleasure for a future move!

for a lot of people 3 countries is still quite a lot! Ok, I could look at 4 countries, but does this mean something special? I believe that the mindset is the special element. Indeed, I'm stuck with a lot of good memories and a lot of things I love to see and have and that's exactly the things which make it difficult to be flexible, to be able to move - even if I still don't know where I'll be next month. And then again, living as if this is would be my last day is the big chance to enjoy life as it is right now. Thus yes - the present is to be lived
