How I Abandoned Everything in Search of Myself.

I had passed through the unforgettable moments that the most other people of my age went through, such as school, college, and office. That was the plane, and that was the direction I was heading towards.It was not thought to be like it.
I studied school education and had very interested of as a professional teacher. I have the dream that I have my classroom, and I teach in my city. So, I was on the way towards that. Different paths college teach me, and it was a thing that always interested me in it. This wild, fantasy of living alone while " saving the world " definitely it had its allure to a young 20 something. I did it and rocked my world. Can I save the world? But experience saves me. All planned out and many hours spent to find the best programs to get my Master of Education. Best ideas of living in a new state and starting settle into normal life. I would teach, and I would be happy, and I would take out a mortgage.
About 2 years and 6 months into my service,  after riding this roller coaster of emotions then I finally came to term that I kind like it.I also realized many schools offering the best degrees were not cheap. So what to do?
This time, Google search term, " Ways to make to make money" . Then there it was , teach English! yeah everyone was doing that and I seemed that money was really that. I realize that I had an excellent chance because I got the degree in Education. I was not straying at all from because what I set to do 5 years ago. Instead of teaching in the elementary schools, I would just now teach abroad and earn money. Teach for 11 months and save the stack of cash, go home and studied. I ended up teaching in Australia and fall in love with my country. Australia is very decent fascinating country. People are usually nice there and transport of Australia was awesome. It was an incredible,perfect and decent country to live. The problem with Australia is the work culture. They have 6 days work week. But the day is so long and so are the mornings and nights over there. I worked 60+ hours in a workweek and I become so weak. I spending much more time away from my home. Sacrifice my precious time for happiness and growth. As the money stacked up,I become very tired, finding ways in naps to
I left Australia as expected. I had saved the stack of cash. Over 24 months constant work and the last thing I wanted to do was lose it instantly. I followed my heart and have not looked back since and I did not. In Australia, people have freedom of traveling, is beautiful decent peaceful and fine country. I have no worries what happen next.





I am living at present and taking it and taking it one day at a time. What traveling has taught me ? Is he still teaching me, is to trust and let it go? There was work to do and cash to be made. I do not need all this money. But food and accommodation are provided then what else do you need?
 I know this must be crazy. I have no saving whatsoever and I am heading 30s this year. Yup, I have thought about that and I will trust that I will eventually get that and have a constant source of money. I would not be young forever, but still I am. Why do you not do what you want to do now when you know you can do easily? The present what we have ? We are just saving for critical in the future but there is not security future will be here. I do not think so but I think it is inspiring and hopeful.
It was taken quite the journey to get where I am. Looking at my friends who have stable and earn money on decent and elegant way marriages children and then comparing what I have. But that was the just thing, I can not compare. I do not know what is it I am looking for ? I do not know what happen next ? But does it matter ? Now, I am going to continue to wear my old clothes and have minor freaks out over my account. Now I am going to embrace life and in the live moments because that was the only thing I know always be there. I worked 10+ hours in a day, and I became more tired, and I save the stack of money.
But for me this is working Yup, it is scary and  I had the fair share of breakdowns and still do. I often wonder " What the hell are you doing? " Then I bring myself back and the present moment. Reassured by the notion that I am exactly where I meant to be. The Strange world has taken me to is something that I never planned for. I ride in different waves of life and find myself washed in those incredible places. Each of them teaching me new thing and I have learned them very well which is very good for me and I keep going. Everyone is own their own journey. I work for me not works for others. I can remember Australia is so peaceful country and I enjoy it very much. Australia is so beautiful country and it is also called the land of kangaroos because Australia has kangaroos more than any country. The Strange world has taken me to is something that I never planned for.
I am going to embrace life and live in the moments of life because that was the only one thing I completely know always be there. How do you live presently and fully.
