Maria I think looking at all your options is a good idea. Your just exploring what you could do not making definitve plans.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hello again from Shanghai. We spent the day catching up with family. (First, Biyi went with her parents to visit little aunt's husband in hospital. Ryan and I sat outside and people-watched.) We had lunch with her uncle and aunt in a very nice restaurant, buffet-style. (The ice cream was particularly good.) Ryan was particularly impressed that we were travelling by train. He was a big hit with the other commuters too.
The best news, we went over to big aunt's for dinner, and Biyi's cousin just happened to have a power cord for a Dell! So I'll be able to recharge my computer. We have to return it in a couple of days, but nonetheless we're set for the moment. (I like her big aunt and family a lot. She's been spending the last couple of days teasing Ryan by growling and then chasing him for tickles. Tonight over dinner Ryan was growling back at her, and then laughing hysterically at his own comic genius.)
Tomorrow, we're thinking the Shanghai Zoo. Oh, we walked around the neighbourhood too (big aunt's place is in walking distance from our hotel) and found a children's photography establishment. We've booked him in for the day after tomorrow.

Nora, you ain't seen nuthin' yet.
Yeah, I finished up Season 2 and I think I am going to need a little break before resuming.
Maria, it sounds like you are being realistic about things. A move may well be the type of change that you need, but no matter what it is going to take time to get everything together. If you were typing that you'd made up your mind and you had a one way ticket to Italy purchased for two weeks from today, I'd be very concerned. Looking at it as an option to consider as you get things sorted with your life I think is a wonderful thing.
What the other ND said!

Be warned that s3 gets wacky. Hang in there, and vent to me as needed. I think it's s3, anyway.
