I think hubby and I are “serial movers”!
This is our fourth move in 3 years – all have been brand new houses and ALL have been “long term leases” Lucky for us our landlords keep building bigger and better houses – or is that UNlucky?

Each time we move we think “oh his is lovely we could live here forever .. and each time we decide about 3 months into it that the new house being built is just that bit nicer …
Anyone else actually ENJOY moving?
(Writes as packing for our next move in 2 weeks – and YES plans already being drawn up for the NEXT house)

  • I love moving and being in a new house. We used to move every couple of years. We have now been in our latest house for 6 years and I have such itchy feet. I just want something new.

  • We had the same addition before we finally bought, Each rental house was lovelier and lovelier.

  • I must be the opposite of addicted to moving. I absolutely loathe it and find it stressful.

  • my husband said the other week I hate moving. I looked at him and said really cause the last two times we moved i did it all by myself. He works away. Makes me laugh. Probably hated listening to me whinge.

  • Nope I couldn’t think of anything worse than having to move all the time.
    I’ve only had 2 rentals before buying my home and hated it was in each rental for a year it’s like you just feel settled and your moving again.

  • I’ve got friends that move a lot, but not me. I get settled and am actually quite hard to shift!

  • Don’t worry I love moving as well, it is exciting and most of all a change and you know what they say “A change is as good as a holiday”
    I want to move again but my partner has had enough he wants to stay put but I think it is because he doesn’t want to move all the heavy furniture again.

  • Sorry but you are crazy!!! Lol. I hate moving, all that packing and confusion about what box contains what items. Do you actually get to fully unpack between each move? On the positive side however, You must be expert packers and movers and the removal company must love you guys!

  • It sounds like a novelty for you & that you like the excitement of living in a new place, hence you don’t mind the packing & unpacking involved. So in relation to your question-yes I think you a moving house addict or do you think you just haven’t found the right house to make it a home?

  • We are moving house soon, although it is exciting, I understand that the experience can sometimes be tiring and pressurising for some. All the best to you and your family!

  • Lots of work to do for moving house and very stressful and tired. We love stay in our house.

  • Moving home can be stressful for some but great for others, i perfer to stay in a place for a while and dont have the hassles of moving changing boys schools re doing things

  • You are probably really good at not accumulating a lot of useless stuff with moving so often. Doesn’t it get expensive though with getting removalists all the time?

  • I cant say I am a fan of moving, I am more the “I can put up with that” rather than have to pack up the house. But they do say a change is as good as a holiday, and to always be ready for bigger and better, so good luck with moving, I hope it goes great for you.

  • Wow you do love moving, no I’m a fan of staying put, the idea of packing everything up and sorting things out, stresses me out .
