Costings and Working
I'm putting this in here, because I can't work out where else it fits.
I am 21, I am currently employed, I have no mortgage or commitments in this country and I want to leave.
I don't want to return to England for as long as possible, I'm just not a fan.
If I live fairly frugally for the rest of this year (I need to serve out 10 months with my current contract) I can save £20-25,000. I figure this will be enough to see me on the road for a certain amount of time. What I really want to know though, is have any of you managed to extend your roadtime with work? If I can work in a few countries, I need not dip into this resevoir, which would be handy.
I know at some point, I will have to settle down and be sensible, but at the mo, every bone in my body aches for some adventure - I'm less than 2 decades old, but already cynical and overworked!
The big problem is, I have no ostensible skill, I work as a linguist here, which although it brings me good cash at home, just enables me to communicate elsewhere. What trade would you recommend learning for extended travel? I'm quite willing to invest in learning something that will bring me cash and extend my vagabondiness.
Thankyou all very much.
Joel
