Returning to places where you lived in or visited decades before, usually leaves a bitter-sour and rather unpleasant taste ...
Human memory is highly selective and erases the ugly stuff (what a blessing !!!) enhancing the pleasant and positive aspects in one's mind which usually turn-out to be in total contradiction to the current, actual condition, especially after the total, fully deliberate enshittification of every aspect of life !!!
Imho, better to keep nice memories of places and past experiences (even being fully aware that they are highly selective) and visit some of the myriads of new places left to explore ...
Well we can go back in thought and memory knowing that it can never happen again, nevertheless it is fun to visit it again...
Agreed!
