Just wondering if others think the same.
The thing is though its Hard to not be blinded during vacation.
Vacation is just different than living at the place.
I have no experience whatsoever but here in germany I feel like I am missing out on life. I wonder how cool it would be just to be a dive instructor or working at animal sancuarys around the world.
I understand its not chill how it is on vacation working a bit and bbq and beers with the plebs. So much going on behind the scenes and the pay sucks. I wouldnt be able to live how I live now.
But maybe life doesnt have to be comfortable to be better and I should try it?
My job and pay here is just too good but not good enough to volunteer more in how I would like to. Money will run out eventuelly and then what?
I dont think I should be living from vacation to vacation at the same time 80% of the humans dont even have this luxery I have…
As a chill person who likes to take things slow and deliberate, but is living in the greater Boston area where everyone is in a rush for no reason and nobody slows down for even a second… Trade?
I recently took a trip to the Netherlands, and that is the kind of place I want to be. Not even just Amsterdam, I traveled to a couple other smaller cities. The “You mind your own business and don’t be a dick and I’ll do the same” mentality was very pleasant, as that’s how I try and live anyway… Interestingly, I talked with some Dutch guys while I was there, and they all seemed to hate it, and one of them wished to move to the southwest USA and live on a ranch with tons of land or something. The classic “You want what you can’t have”. I want affordable reliable robust public transit, walkable car-free infrastructure, and healthcare lol.
