I’ve done this for the past several years. Not on purpose. I keep telling myself I’ll settle down.
I got a new job a year ago. It looked promising and I was ready to make a life here. But I don’t see myself in it. Leaving soon. Saved enough for modest living and adventurous cheapish traveling for at least a year.
Before that job I was mostly on the road for a year and a half, with some temporary odd jobs here and there.
It has its pros and cons. It’s exciting and adventurous. Sometimes it’s intense. I basically have no retirement savings. Super hard to find a partner.
You must have a pretty well-paying job because most jobs don't pay enough for you to really generate anything other than very mediocre savings.
If I were to try this I'd probably last about 4 months and then run out of money.
Not really, actually. I live somewhat frugally. And when I say “travel” I usually mean very low cost traveling involving lots of camping.
Curious, do you plant your own fruits and vegetables? (looking to learn hydroponics)
Nope. I wish. I try not to own a lot of stuff because I might move again eventually. Maybe there’s a good way to do it simply and temporarily. But I’ve scored living situations in places with gardens and fruit trees.
Ah definitely try. It's not very complex to do basic things as some may make it seem. Just get some plants a container and a water pump for circulation as well as a general liquid fertilizer
