Dea Nicola, should I continue my nomadic life abroad or come home to settle down?
Share

Dear Nicola,

I have recently returned home after many years of living abroad. This virus has made me confront the real reasons I have been travelling and not settling down like so many of my friends have, even whilst being single.

I now face the dilemma of what to do with my life. Stay put, settle and create proper roots, or go back and live overseas and continue my free and nomadic lifestyle.

I'm turning 32 soon and although there are pros and cons to each option, I am hesitating to do either.

What should I do next?

Dee
