I really love to travel and this has hampered my career. Like instead of planning lessons I was jetting off to Australia on summer holiday. It was too expensive to go to the Seychelles at that time of the year I did that one Easter holiday. I did a teaching contract, it ended and I rushed off to New Zealand. So I have fitted my teaching career around my interest in traveling. Many people work hard in their career and then retire at 65 by which time their health is not good enough to do all they want to do. How frustrating that must be. In my late teens and twenties I so enjoyed backpacking around Europe and traveling around the world for a year. I still managed to do my degree and fit in a safari in Kenya, studying in the Netherlands and independently touring Israel and Jordan. By age thirty many people have a husband, wife, children and home to consider. So I suggest teens and people in their twenties take some time to enjoy life. But it is never too late for a 50 year old can be get more enjoyment out of their life. Just imagine a 50 year old American man taking off to Africa for six months or a forty seven year old Australian lady going to Europe for six weeks. So I say take some time of out work to enjoy life now.
