there is a decent chance that many around the world would feel the same about their homes after visiting your town for a week. While I can't be certain, there is a good chance that you would feel that way about any place you live. I get the wanderlust from the feelings of "here" often as well, but I have to keep in mind that what I see anywhere else is just a slice of what is actually there. In fact, it is often only what I choose to see there... unlike home, where I am often forced to see/do/feel things that are far more mundane and depressing. It is part of life, and there are billions who envy ours. Make the best of it. Let's all toast to happiness at home and the means to go abroad when the itch to travel hits.
