Have you ever had a similar moment? One of feeling at home in a distant place?

Aurelius710, I've been to Kraków twice. Most recently in September 2021, because my Czech husband had never visited that city. The first time in the summer of 1992, during my university years. I agree it's a nice city. I visited the Aushwitz museum during the first trip. On a bus heading to Krakow, in the wee early hours of the morning, I remember seeing the most beautiful sunrise ever. I will never forget it!
I experienced a moment like you describe maybe three (?) years ago in Paris, France. My husband was in the Airbnb napping, but I was not tired. I decided to walk around the corner to a café bar and have a beverage. The friendly bartender/waiter started a conversation with me, as did a customer who was clearly "a regular" there. When I left, I had the pleasant feeling that "regulars" have when they feel part of some community. I do speak enough French that that was possible.
Question: Describe a very peaceful or surreal moment you've had in the past.
