RE: Being a Digital Nomad is the New "I Wanna Be an Astronaut When I Grow Up"

My dream too.
I plan to run away when I turn 40, I'm done working 10 hours a day, going home, sleep and then back to work, that isn't living, it's dying slowly.
I'm a children photographer in my free time, so my travelling project is to photograph children around the world, show how similar and different childhood can be. I have no idea if I'm going to succeed financially but since it's something I truly love I don't really mind.
I'm saving money, I have 3 years before I leave, I'm not counting too much with Steemit, I've been here only a week and it's not an easy road. I'm always evaluating my photos and trying to improve. Freeadom to me is being able to feel that you're living your life, it doesn't matter what you do or where you work, freedom is living the present and I'm not doing that I'm always living in the future, waiting for my paycheck so I can pay my debts and then wait again. That's a sad life.

Sort:  

That is an interesting plan, I do hope you succeed in it and are not left in the hamster wheel you currently are in. I totally know the feeling, waiting for that paycheck at the end of the month and using most of it to pay bills, it's not a good feeling. Instead, I kinda have the payday every day, though when the price is like this, I don't actually take it out and I won't know when I will. Scary and exciting :D
