This comment resonates with me. Is there a good resource for packing up your life and traveling for a while?

Background: I have a great and interesting remote job but the workload is high relative to the salary. I have 1 years salary saved. I could ask for a raise, but I would much rather spend a year traveling and improving myself.

Any specific questions? My email is in my profile if you prefer thst.

I'm currently on a five month break with my wife. The first two months were in an apartment in the south of France, currently hiking though Loch Lomond and then a couple months in Edinburgh.

It's pretty good! Probably shouldn't have waited 10 years to do this.

A break from your wife or with your wife?

I was visiting somebody recently who told me they just slept in ditches in their 20s in order to travel. They lived on peanuts and saw all of Europe. Basically, it just depends on how satisfied you can be with less luxury. Stoicism is all about that
