Hey guys, I moved away from home and I miss it every day.

Is anyone in the same position or had the same experience and what helped? Now that we bought the house and have a debt I can’t easily get back to where I came from in the near future. Lucky enough though it’s only a 8 minute drive (the town I use to live in is about 5 miles away from where I live now).

I think a big part of my thoughts circling is that I grew up in the other town and know all the people and in the town I now live in I barely know anyone… I can’t explain they aren’t unfriendly, infact most are welcoming and friendly, but have different interests than I do.

My old town had a nice lake that was a 5 minute walk. Now I can’t even walk to the lake anymore and even by bike it is about 30 minutes away.

    I am 24 hours and 2 flights away from my hometown. I miss it every single day. I’m “stuck” in the new city till I can pay off my mortgage, at the very least. I try to make the most of what’s here and just remind myself of all the reasons why I moved in the first place.
