Do you have any friends who would or could accompany you financially or are you in a position to pay their way on a trip or two or three?
When you locally what do you mean? In what state do you live and where would you love to go for a visit or live for that matter?
If you have a job could you move? That would be a big change if you are any part of a risk taker. I am adventurous and a risk taker and someone with whom nobody messes with. Yikes I sould like a shrew and I am not. I try to do something nice for someone daily if I am out of the house...if I am in I try to make my husband laugh or at least grin. Life is short and we are in the Winter of our lives so we do what we want for the most part and that includes loving our two Cavalier King Charles pups.

I want to study for my PhD in a different country, then decide whether to live there or go to an entirely different country afterwards.
Adventurous and a risk taker, no wonder I called you brave. We need more of such people. Most of us live rather dull lives. No, you don't sound like a shrew.
You, your husband, and your pups are lucky to have each other.
Sometimes people have an immortality complex and don't make the most out of life.

With the right amount of planning, there is a friend who could accompany me, and another that could come along but I would have to pay for. The first trip will be taken alone. It is short, and I'll be visiting family. Once I decide the length of the second trip, I can see if I can cover the cost for a second person.
I mean in my country, without crossing a border. I am not in the US, I am in Africa. I am openminded about the destination, for me the joy is in the trip itself and being in a place I have not yet been. I started learning French and I fell in love with the language, I would love to visit France. Not the tourist places, a small town somewhere with beautiful sunsets and fresh air. I would LOVE to see the Northen Lights. If there was a Genies for lupus patients, that's what I would use my trip on.
I have a job. Theoretically, I could move, but it would have to be to a place with a rheumatologist and other health services I need. That is what has kept me in the city I have been working in the 4 years. I would love to be in a smaller, quiet place with less people.
