How has your decade been?
Discussion
As the 2010s come to an end, it seems like there are articles/posts everywhere reflecting on the decade that’s almost complete. Thought it might be interesting for PHers to do the same, so here’s mine:
In 2010 I was 23, living in Nottingham, working at a bank, single and driving a Clio 182.
Today I'm 33, living in Leeds, been teaching for 6 years, married for 5 and drive a sheddy old Micra.
I’ve had 4 jobs, 6 homes, and 9 cars since 2010.
I’ve lived in Nottingham, MK, Leeds and spent 2 years living in South Korea.
Highlights of the decade?
- Meeting my now wife whilst living in South Korea back in 2010. We’ve been together nearly a decade.
- Getting a career. Moved to South Korea to teach English in 2010, returned to the UK in 2013 and been teaching ever since.
- Two years living in Korea, followed by a year off work travelling around Asia, Europe and the USA.
- Did a 5-week road-trip around Norway and Sweden in 2015, which was brilliant.
So, how has your decade been and what were the best bits of the 2010s for you? (I'm aware this is a few weeks early before anyone says it.

)Just read through the thread and it has been a fascinating read (except one pedantic t
t, but it wouldn't be PH without one!)
It just shows how even in tough situations, most are positive about the last 10 years whether down to hard work, luck or the lack of it.
It definitely reminds you to make the most of each day and enjoy your life.
It's also made me excited for the next decade and adventures going from my 30s to 40s (makes me feel old typing that!)
