Yet I'd stay, with us as players knowing very little about any region outside of Eorzea, why not just go for a very sheltered life within her tribe? It gives you a reason to be not familiar with Eorzean etiquettes either, and hey, its fun to make up your own tribal habits!
Also to answer your question about ageing. All the races age at the same rate, except for Elezen who stay children/teenagers a wee bit longer. They also live a little bit longer in general. Not like other elves in other setting, but think 20+ years or so. But people in Eorzea make it rarely past... 50 if I recall.
So your Miqo'te would just age 'normally' so to speak!
If I may... I'd still suggest to consider to be from one of the city-states, or own tribe. Your Miqo'te can easily have grown up in one of the Eorzean cities! You don't even have to be from a tribe. Your character's parents could have easily taken a city life. Bit strange, but not unheard of for certain.
But.. Coming from your grandma Ala Mhigan roleplayer; It is not always fun knowing lore little about your character's city. You can't answer things in depth. It is a pain if you want to go beyond what little snippets we have. There's only so much I can have Ave say about Gyr Abania/Ala Mhigo/Monk temples because I don't know the information myself.
I'd really keep that possible roadblock in mind as well. But anyhow, your character, your choice, but you might shoot yourself in the foot by wishing to be from another part of the world beyond Eorzea. I get you, the lore of this game isn't as easily to be found as with others due to a lack of a Wiki, but I think you have a huge chance falling into the pit you're trying to avoid by taking this approach. Best of luck anyhow!
