The Yearning

There are many things I want to do, and seeing the path to doing them is nigh impossible. I want to live a location-independent existing, working from country to country for the rest of my life. I would support myself any way I could - online/freelance writing, WWOOFing, TESOL, anything. I would go where the wind swept me.
But I can't. I have debts here, responsibilities, things and people that need looking after. So I must stay.
I tried looking up different ways to make money online. There are lots of ideas out there ... none of them guaranteed. I can't risk that.
The Yearning is for a challenge. To travel the world would be an immense challenge, but it's not possible right now. Instead, I'm setting my sights on something else. My new challenge - to get a Masters (in American Studies) and then a PhD (in Education?).
And maybe, in that time, other challenges might arise. Who knows?
