RE: My NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS? What you should focus on this year and how to put it into practise.

in Self Improvement3 years ago

you have been traveling since 2016 to October last year? WOW thats impressive haha.

I have a few places I would like to visit soon but require more money than the one I have haha... like Peru, Japan, Vietnam, ...

Yeah, it was a lot of fun. I dubbed it traveliving. Cuz we weren't just traveling. Each time we got somewhere, we'd stay minimum 30 days but we didn't book the following month until we landed at the current month, does that make sense? Example would be not knowing you're spending December in Rome until you're in Israel in November.

We developed many little tricks that'll force you to engulf yourself in the culture like rent a stay without washer/dryer. Something as simple as that forces you to do laundry at the laundromat. Not many things compare to understanding and appreciating cultures like doing laundry with the locals.

That's so cool. I would love doing that! But did you work remotely at the same time?

Negative. I worked my craft nearly to death between age 19 and 41 and retired the day I got my hours. Now I draw several pensions that afford my wife and I our lives and I still have a couple years to go before I'm 50. Most are either forced or choose to retire well into their 60's. When I first began my career, I intended to retire by age 40. 41.... close enough.

Amazing. Well done you!

Hey when we're going back and forth like this, don't worry about upvoting my comments. I mean, it's your HP, do what you want with it. But when I'm engaging with someone, I typically upvote the first comment only unless of course something's exchanged I really appreciate.

By voting only that first comment and not the entire conversation, I'm saving my HP to support original content. Does that make sense?

Just a suggestion. You're doing great.

I understand! Thanks for the tips. It totally makes sense :)
