I feel like the people who are web developers and graphic designers can usually find clients, so I wish you the best of luck. 9 to 5s are AWFUL.

I spent a year traveling and loved it! I went to 19 countries and was truly inspired by the people I met and the things I saw. I am sitting here wondering how did I end up back at a desk worrying that the 10 days of vacation is not nearly enough! I am working on getting web development projects as a free lancer. I can whip up a web based rails app in no time and am hoping I can make a decent income on web developing and social media marketing so I too can quit my job again!

I quit my job 2 years ago. I am now teaching English in Thailand, but would really like to be a full time writer.

That’s the reason I’m not already on the road. I need a few months at home to gain steady work and have some money in the bank. Hope to see you out on the road someday

In fact, I am probably on the verge of making a very similar decision by the end of the year. I have to save though, I never want to experience the “starting over” and taking whatever job pays the bills route ever again!

If we have the chance, guts, and of cours desire to travel, then it is def best to do it now! Who knows what is around the corner! It’s good that you have found a way to make money while you are travelling too. Well done you!
