Familiarity doesn’t breed contempt, it just causes us to ignore things.
Google “tourist attractions” and the name of the place where you live.
Go ahead—I’ll wait.
There will be a variety of listings, with most claiming to be the “top ten” or such. Jot them down. Now go back and open the next list; you’ll find that while some attractions are repeated, there are also new ones. Add them to the list.
Now look at the list. Are some of the sites interesting? When you were younger, did you ever wish you could see any of them?
Now that they are nearby, have you ever actually gone to any of them?
See what I mean?
