Nomads

It is how we are programmed. We stay at some place for too long, and we start feeling a little unhappy. The longer we stay, the more unhappy we become. Hunters and Gatherers were nomads. They lived in the Golden Age of human history and they were, as it is believed, the happiest people ever to walk the Earth. Changing locations leads to new experiences, which stay in our memory, giving us the impression of living a productive life. Thus, we become happier.

To stay somewhere for, let's say, eighteen years, is to learn how to ignore strong feelings. I don't know since when people live at one place for their whole lives, but this definitely made us an unhappy race of creatures.
