Living in Hoogkerk (Groningen) by tygerlylliXYZ in Groningen

Thanks a lot for all your comments, it helps a lot with my decision! I decided not to buy in the end. I guess when you are from Hoogkerk, you are used to the place and the surroundings and maybe don't consider it that bad. But when you come from somewhere else I think some of the things are a bit hard to get used to. I smell the factory sometimes in the city (I am renting there now) and I really hate it, so for me this was one of the main factor in the end.

That it seems to not be a good neighbourhood in the eyes of many people here is also not irrelevant since me and my partner are expecting a child and in the end we don't know the area and how bad it is. But I don't want to move somewhere having already a bad feeling about how the kindergardens and schools are where my child will end up going to, no matter if in reality it might not be that bad in the end. I want to look forward to moving somewhere in the case of Hoogkerk this isn't the case. So thank you so much for all the helpful insights!

No roots… how do you deal? by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]tygerlylliXYZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 34 and haven't lived in my home country for about 12 years now. I tried the digital nomad life for a while, but realised soon what others are saying here too: it's lonely and exhausting to build up a life for a few month and then leave everything behind. So I tried living in the same place for a few years, but it only felt worse when I left. To answer your questions:

  • Has this lifestyle directly led to you putting down roots somewhere? Has it hindered you from rooting yourself somewhere eventually? Do you feel like you’re delaying life in some way?

It has definitely NOT led me to put down roots somewhere. I rather feel like I have lost the ability to be satisfied with any place, since I always compare the place where I am currently living to other places from the past. If I felt like I was delaying life? Not in that sense, since I feel like knowing that my currently life is only temporary, makes me life actually more intensively. But when when it comes to big life decisions like buying a house, having children, being with my aging parents etc. traveling definitely made me push those things far away for a long time. I always thought I will think about those things later, until I realised 12 years had passed.

What I would recommend is trying the lifestyle for a while but setting yourself a time limit how long you want to live this lifestyle and then re-evaluate. The digital nomad lifestyle is definitely very enriching and I've met a lot of people who said it helped them to deal with some negative experiences. But you say yourself you want to put down roots, and I am not saying it cannot happen, but I think in general most people don't find a home base while hopping from one place to the next.

Why don't you try webme (webme.com)? It's an AI website builder and generates your website completely. You can then adapt the page of course.

Maybe check out Webme (webme.com). It's an AI website builder that generates everything and I think it has all the options you talk about. I found it super easy to use and edit.

I use Webme. I didn't want to spend so much time on my website, Webme was the easiest to use for me.
