If one travels hopefully, but is disappointed upon arrival, then one appears to have had unreasonable expectations. Do you propose to travel hopefully for eternity, and never to arrive?

An English poet, T. S. Eliot (actually born in America, in St. Louis, but was educated at Oxford in England, and settled there) wrote the following lines: We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.

Perhaps if you travel enough, and at the end of your travelling, you return home, you will have learned enough to know things about your home which you had never before understood.

An adage which more or less fits the situation is "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence."
