I greatly disliked the area where I finished growing up. My parents for whatever reason decided they wanted to move closer to family in bumfuck rural nowhere Pennsylvania from California. Nobody... and mean NOBODY in that school of less then 100 students cared about the outside world, funny media, or edgy cartoons/comics. Like how you feel about your small country, I felt the same way about this small part of Pennsylvania.
When I finally got out of there, I traveled to sooo many different places, and I was also homeless 2x. However I gained more perspective about the US and eventually, after wearing many hats, making and loosing many friends, I settled in near the capital of PA. Why? Because 1. lol cheap, 2. there is a little bit to do here and 3. not everyone is a boring conservative type. It also has access to a major highway called the turnpike, where I can drive to Philadelphia for a day trip to play music at a party or show, and drive back. I can also go FURTHER and go to NJ or NYC by train system if I wanted to and experience life in those places. I go west to Pittsburgh and even OHIO (lol) if I wanted to and see life there.
What I'm trying to say is... if you do not like where you are, travel often. Travel Frequently. You will go places multiple times and go see new places often. Keep doing this until you have found a community and a town/city that feels safe, shares your ideals, and has access to transportation out of there if you need to flee or repeat the process.
I'm still looking for my perfect place to call my HOME. You will too. Keep traveling in your schedule no matter what. Ok? :)
Thank you very much for the inspirational text! I truly want to get out and find my ideal place. For now my family is kind of preventing me from doing so tbh. But I Really wanna pursue the same dream as you, And live in a place that shares my ideals and is stable enough. I'm currently living a in moderate speed sinking ship, With me somehow stuck to the cables, Also I'm kind of surprised to know I'm not the only one facing this. With living in a obscure country with people not giving a damn about outside media. Really I feel like living in small parts of a state or a small country is a nightmare.
I keep having even dreams of me moving out or being somewhere else. Its like traveled is really a destined thing for me somehow despite not being adventurous, Once I truly out there. I will strive to find a place I'm comfortable in
