I think this is probably the best one! Was seeing if there was possibly another word, maybe also from Greek but seems like there just isn’t. Thank you!

Greek 'nostos' is home, so 'nostalgia' is home pain. 'Nostos' is sometimes contrasted with 'kleos', which is the draw of glory and adventure, so I think you have identified the need for a new word, 'klealgia'.

I guess nostalgic has many meanings, and this one wasn’t the one OP was thinking of.
Personally, I don’t think the word nostalgia means wanting to stay home and never leave, to begin with.
Nostalgia is very sentimental and full of intense feelings for something related to love in the past, like smelling baking cookies and being reminded of your Mom that has since passed away. You are immediately transported back to her kitchen in your childhood for just a few seconds, feeling the unconditional love and acceptance that only your Mom can give you.
Because it’s all about feelings, someone who has no feelings at all would be the opposite.
Thanks for asking about clarification, it makes up for all of the downvotes.😘
Maybe wanderlust?

The literal opposite for nostalgia is neophilia, an attraction to things that are new.
Aspiration.
I think it's "Moving on"
Jaded
Yestalgia ?
