Not at all the exception.
When I retired in '08 and sold my business and my CA property, I bought a motor home to travel around the US to look for my new home. I'd meet folks who'd tell me that I MUST see this place and that place.
To cut this short, after just two months of being on the road, I thought, "How many more mountains and National Monuments do I need to see?" After a point, they didn't impact me.
I headed for AZ and bought a place within a month or two.
Bottom line for me - I don't care if I never leave home.
