This is just a vent or someone who might be in a similar situation and feeling the same.

I have no idea what I was thinking. 29m. I never really felt fulfilled in Australia. I just wanted something different and to see how I would feel.

6 months in Canada and I've travelled around the US as well and I feel the exact same as I did in Australia.

For some reason I assumed leaving Australia would suddenly just fix how I felt. But maybe it was nothing to do with the country, but maybe myself.

I feel so incredibly empty here. I'm glad I did it for the experience. But I think I need to go home. This just isn't for me.

EDIT: I really appreciate everyone's comments. I've read them all. Similar experiences or not have made me feel less alone and it's comforting knowing Im not the only one who has dealt with this.
