I'm actually having a bit of a crisis regarding this exact issue. I am looking at postdoctoral opportunities in California (Berkeley, Stanford or Caltech) and find myself completely overwhelmed. All of my family, and most of my friends, are here in Canada but my particular field has way more jobs and opportunities in California. I am actually really nervous about the whole situation. I know that it will be a great move for my career but I'm not sure if that is what's most important to me.
I used to say that I would never hesitate to move and try something new but now that the opportunity is here I'm scared stiff. TOTF, I'm impressed that you're approaching such a big change with a relaxed nature.
