    Cold feet :/

    Work as a cook comes in every town, so if you choose to go, you could ease into it by going from one job to the next, telling your boss that you want to learn new techniques or what ever the fuck you feel like, and that's why you keep getting new jobs. See how things evolve, were your confort...

    First time home since traveling, can't relate to friends/family anymore

    That's pretty epic of yours! I never had any interrest in university anyway, but yeah, the fact that I'm 27 plays in this, but the fact that they both grew up in some what dire poverty makes it extra hard for them to understand my life choice!

    First time home since traveling, can't relate to friends/family anymore
