This sounds absolutely amazing. I hope one day I can save enough money to do this (also accepting generous donations haha). There would be so many places I visit that a year might not be enough to be honest!
Congratulations on the change, wish all the best in the new adventure! That site looks perfectly tailored to your situation, I bet you were ecstatic when you found it.
I would love to take a year off. But I wouldn't travel the entire planet. Go to maybe 10 different places that are intriguing to me. I would like to go to different places and immerse myself in the culture. I'd love to understand how people think and how they'll world works. One reason I love to take a year off is really to discover myself. I love to find out who I really am and what really ticks me off and what makes me happy. I love to find out my purpose in my destiny on this. And then after that you get to work. I would hit the road running.
What places would you visit lovemwaf? Maybe see the World Wonders? Or other places with personal interest? Give us your rough plan
Oh, I'm jealous too lol... your co-worker must 1) make alot of money 2) and saved alot of it to be able to sustain himself for a whole year. I think if I really needed the break I could see myself taking some time off, I don't know about a whole year. Yet, if I didn't like my job I might. If I did like my job then I wouldn't want to leave it for too long and feel like I was backsliding in my career or being replaced.
Well, if your work can be managed through the internet, then planning a getaway for a year will be great. However, if you have work commitments, planning a year away will be difficult.
