I have spent my 20s as a transient, and am getting ready to shift into resident stage as I approach my 30th year. But in my heart, I think I am generally still a transient... I crave change, new places, new faces, almost instinctively. I get bored very easily. I loved, loved, LOVED every moment of backpacking around Europe... the only letdown were my "partners in crime," who eventually revealed themselves to be more "resident" types and did not like being dragged around everywhere.
That said, I do miss having a physical "home," though my husband is my portable home and I always feel at ease and comfortable, as long as we are together. I look forward to the next stage of my life as a "resident," but I'll always be open to new places. People stagnate without change.
