I would have said the same but when I joined the army I wasn’t far away but then I did 3 years in Singapore and the travel bug bit i guess

... and you got used of it, I think. The longest time I was away from home, was about 3 months, when I travelled through Europe after the army in the age of 18.

YEah I did I must admit and now thinking of staying here when I retire,

I thought you wanted to move closer to your grandchilds?

Ohh yes I do here as in the States not back to NZ where I grew up
Hopefully before to long will start looking at the property market where the kids and grandkids are

OK, I had thought, for some reason you decided to stay where you are now.

The plan is to move about 2 hours or so away to the area where they live even colder than here in winter but will be able to see the grandkids more often 👍😎👍
