What is the distance between your childhood home vs your current home?

6 miles. I have never leaved further than 6 miles from where I currently live, and I'm 67.
 

2.7 miles and in NYC parlance, a world away.
I wish I had the bravery to visit your city. I'd love to see it but I fear my ability to understand and acclimate soon enough would put me in danger. The thought of experiencing all the things at your fingertips is so intriguing. I just know I'm frozen in fear if I tried to act on it.

I’ve a longtime cyber friend who came to visit and when our sightseeing day was done she was anxious and afraid to ride the subway by herself for three stops. I wound up taking her back to her hotel but it made me look at my city with new eyes.

I think I’m just used to the needed mindset 🙂.
 
That’s easy, in NJ, I grew up Exit 144, and we have retired to Exit 0 !
 
1226 miles driving or 1075 miles if I had wings

Exit 161 N.J. Parkway and now Exit 191 of I-75 in FL.
