Like if it's even an option for you at all, make the move. It's such a better quality of life it's crazy, cannot be exaggerated.

Obviously not easy, but if it's even at all potentially feasible do what you can to make it happen.

I've been trying for over a year now but getting a job anywhere but here seems impossible. I've been trying to save up some cash as a buffer, but I have an ok job already where I am. I'd want to move to Philly, but have no friends or contacts there at all. No clue what the job market is like either since I can't get any responses to my applications.

Maybe someday I'll make it work, but it's a struggle right now.
