That's kinda true most anywhere you go is it not? Maybe more true for New York City than Hawaii.
I left my hometown at 18 and moved to London with $600. Came back four years later shipping a car back from England. I almost stayed there. My parents had no idea or grasp of what I was doing. Fact was, neither did I. I'm very glad I did my coming up in a foreign country without support.
My little brother tried the same thing ten years later and fell flat on his face.
The opportunities in life are varied. One person goes to a place and finds true love and happiness. Another goes to the same place and gets mugged. It comes down to following your heart and being willing to make mistakes.

Assume the best and ask questions.
