I am wondering some thoughts on this. (US)

We've lived in this house for 6 years. It's a great place, but we always figured we'd probably move again at some point. Now, we have a decent amount of stuff (mostly due to my 1000's of hobbies, we like to do a lot of shit because life should be fun) so I really hate moving.

My thought is-hey, if we end up moving, lets just move really far away. Most of our families will be gone in a few years and there's not really a reason to stay here. I could probably give up a lot of my large items if it meant moving to a really interesting new country (thinking one of the Nordic countries, my grandparents were from there). Still, it would probably be 6 years before we would actually move.

Just wondering how crazy this really is. I think my SO feels like it's a joke when I bring it up.

Oh boy. You don't have kids so that's a plus. It sounds like you have a min max mentality. Your SO you need to confirm it but it's not crazy so long you guys are fully on board for the ride.

If you say I wanna move 2000 miles out, if she picked 2000 miles north would you be fine with that?

Yep I do. I dont do anything or I do it full on!

Thats why we probably wouldnt move until our parents are gone which is probably 10 years out.

I was just thinking if we are moving already, why not just go farther.
