Just because you can does not mean one will or should. You gave IRL reasons of means to do things, why not give IRL reasons -not- to.
Some characters just plain ICly do not want to. Not everyone -does- have the opportunity in their RP to do so nor are they willing to break that, for whatever reasons they want to.
Fault them all you want but they have their own reasons. OOCly, I am perfectly content and happy with my RP in Ul'dah and the surrounding areas. Going on beach trips, going on missions, expeditions are that much more meaningful when he does go. He -has- to go there for whatever reason and that makes it much more interesting.
You forget that not every character is curious. Just like real people, not everyone wants to explore or travel the world. Either because no means, no opportunity, or more importantly, desire. For the longest time Kage was content with living in Thanalan as a horrible Goldsmith under his parents' business or continuing his mother's interest in Thaumaturgy.
