We're thinking of moving to the seaside, you never get tired of staring at the sea.
Unless you’re in a boat and feeling queasy.
Apparently seasickness isn't a problem if you're in small boats from a very young age. In my case before I could even walk.
As for where I live. I don't hate it, but neither do I love it. It's dead handy for London though. Pretty good transport connections all round. Train, bus, coach, plane etc.
Luckily for me, I had things work the right way around.
I lived in the countryside near the coast when I was a child and moved to large towns when I was an adult (for the social scene, education and work). At the moment I'd find it too boring living in a small village, even by the coast, as I've seen it, done it, got the t-shit and read the book. Also, I don't want to have to be dependent on a car. I do miss the countryside, seaside views though, but at least I've got a lot of found memories.
As for later in life, St. Albans would be a possibility or Dartmouth on the south Devon coast. The trouble is getting the money together, as both places are very expensive to live if you want to be a homeowner in terms of buying a property.
Time will tell.
