Super! “Settle Down”, then...

Listen, I am 34 years old. Since I was 18 I’ve lived in 11 different houses. I've lived in 3 different countries and I gotta say I think my parents are wondering when I will settle down!

First, I moved to university, and then I went to France for a year and then I went back to England and then I went to Spain for a few years and then back to England and then I went to Spain and then I went to the States and I'm sure people think ‘when are you going to stop living a crazy life and just settle down’.

Settle down: buy a house, get married, have kids, have a normal life in one place! "Settle down". Now, I am married I do have a baby girl so…. 2 out of 3... I'm 2/3 of the way to settling down but I still move around quite frequently so I don't own a house, so I don't really consider myself “settled down” just yet!


And I'm 34, so is that too old? Should I have settled down by now? I don't know... you tell me!! What's the perfect age to settle down? When did you settle down? I'm very interested to hear your answer so let me know in the comments below!
