It feels like to me, your biggest problem is that you are afraid to tackle on new things and from what I see, that is exactly what you need. You worry that you have restricted your character's skills too much, but try to turn it around. Make it so that it is your character's goal (seeing how she does not trust strangers as well and she is often forced to rely on them to get somewhere) to for example learn teleportation magic... or any magic altogether.
Another good course of action would be to seek new contacts on this lovely side that would help you with this goal and any other. If you dread about repetition, do your best not to lead into such a situation! Improvise! Seek characters with which you would be able to try and do something you haven't done before, but wanted to.
