Hello, teachers!
Which one of the following sentences is better?
1. I visited her yesterday, but she had already moved to somewhere.
2. I visited her yesterday, but she had already moved somewhere.
Thank you in advance!

Neither. Why not just end with "already moved"?
That leaves open the theoretical and perhaps metaphysical possibility that she had indeed moved to nowhere, but that seems a small price to pay.
