I think I would like to try living the nomadic way of life. It sounds tempting to be on the road and be exposed to many cultures and lifestyles. I wish I could see what life with no attachment and no place like home looks like. I adapt to change easily, so I suppose I would learn a minimalist mindset quite quickly.

Never in my life would I try living the nomadic way of life. Firstly, I couldn’t do without basic things such as a shower or toilet. I think a lack of stability would have a negative impact on me as I prefer to organise everything. I can’t imagine ditching my house and family members as I would miss them.

More and more people are deciding to lead a nomadic way of life nowadays. This issue has as many advantages as disadvantages.

First of all, the nomadic way of life undoubtedly enriches our knowledge of the world. We are exposed to new challenges, experiences, cultures, and situations. Due to this, we are likely to learn a new language and meet a vast number of interesting local people who will tell us more about their region. Secondly, we are given a chance not to be tied down to our daily routine habits. Everyday is different and we need to face new situations. Sometimes people have to face problems such as a lack of tap water to take a shower.

On the other hand, a lack of stability may cause a serious problem for some people, especially families with children or old ones. They might find it hard to get adjusted to constantly changing life. Children might miss their relatives and schoolmates. What is more, sometimes nomads are not able to find accommodation and there is a necessity to sleep in the car, which is highly uncomfortable.

All in all, the nomadic way of life has as many followers as opponents. Without a doubt, this kind of life is pretty original, and everybody may want to try it one day.
