Those from far away places or couples without either side of family nearby, do you ever think of moving close to family?

Whenever I go back home a couple times a year, it seems I’m reminded of the distance especially when all of my family is still there.

Is anyone else in the same situation? Without taking family into account, I think this city suits my lifestyle and interests the best right now. But lately I’m wondering if it’s worth the compromise of being far from family.

One short term solution I’ve thought of is visiting family more frequently. Right now I only visit them once or twice a year for a week each time.

Maybe more frequent visits will help give me some clarity while I sort out my feelings. Have any of you with family afar tried doing the same?

I’m lucky to be in a position that allows me to work remotely so am considering to take advantage of that and fly home to connect in person with family more frequently.
