The short answer to your question is yes. Freedom to do and go and be around people I truly like is a gift of my sobriety. I had to be willing to take the chance on an uncertain future in every way in order to see that there's no downside to living sober.
Are you ready to do what you need to do in order to get and stay sober? That's the real question, rather than what or who or where you are....those details, if you will, can get resolved once you decide what kind of life you want.
Best to you.
