...Doubt it was a dull 22 years.
You like to move place to place and meet people. Some like to stay in one place, meet people occasionaly and spend more time with their family, hobby (sometimes you can't really take your hobby with you), camp in the wild with your dog etc.
Also making your family, esp kids move every few years sucks really hard for them, never being able to build their circle of friends.
No, just that "it’s a wasted life".
>I relocated to live in 5 different cities in the same time span, met many different people, for me that counts
And for others having roots, and not just meeting different people like a tourist only to dispose and move on in a few years, but building deep relations with people, is what counts.
To be frank, it sounds like novelty seeking to avoid deeper commitments and more substantial development. Of course if one is young (say <= 30) it can also be fun.
I also tend to have more control over my schedule. That makes it easy to shift days around to feel different.
Perhaps they believed and had passion for the vision. Then why would you leave?
