It feels like time drags when you're away for a long period. When you return, it's as if you never left. that's just how it is. Welcome back!
Travel to foreign places is usually exciting and fun (although in some cases it can feel like a penalty for some people). No matter what situation applies to you as a traveler, it makes sense to want to stay at home for a long time. Whether home is where you were born or the place you adopted for your home, that's where you want to be just to get grounded again.
