I think most people have sentimental attachments to the place where they currently live, but they have no sentimental attachment to a place they have never visited. Why move somewhere just because you imagine that it will be better?

That's what the Jews in Europe thought before the Holocaust.

Perhaps because you imagine it will be better in the sense of not being horribly killed, because that is what you are facing. But of course you don't have to do this. Do something else that makes sense for you, but for heavens sake do something.
