family attachment, old school friends, maybe a former goal an individual had in his home country, those were reason that usually made people think twice about leaving your home town, and move to another country that could or not satisfy your future demands.. well now with an increasing amount of expats in all mayor cities, is actually quite easy to find a group of foreigners to do a meetup, drink a beer or two, have some chat, take a bite. some may feel just like at home, some may hide what is actually in their minds... after all their nothing like the old four walls that used to protect some years back. wel some try to come back, and they actually find out they dont fit anymore in what it was called home. d! things dont change but people do! not everyone maybe, but infact the people did have the courage to try to change and did it. now suddenly your a strange in the new country and in the old one as well.

Well yes people chages as time goes by. Yes, to decide to go to another country there are many things to think of. It isn't wise just go to other country without a nice bunch of preparation. Strange in hometown after a journey should be healed as time goes by too. Adaptation is one of human surviving ability that every one have.

Although I love adventures, but it is way too scary and takes a lot of bravery to permanently live in a new place where you know less people. Much more, you have no big idea of the cultural identity of the place you are planning to reside in. You are fully attached to the way you are. You cannot just easily ignore and throw away the relationship you had with your friends. It's difficult to adjust and worse, when you live with no real companion.
