My Year of the Life of Leisure

I left my job, left my apartment, sold most everything in that apartment and embarked on a year of travelling and leisure. I am working on writing a couple of books. This might be one of them... But then, my chief pursuit is leisure, so who knows exactly what will happen.

Oh, and a change of what will happen in July

I was originally starting to seriously plan to go to Prague before I left, to look in to teaching English there. I met some women on a train that currently teach there, and they made it sound imminently possible to make a reasonably good living doing so, and that there is A Lot of demand for English teachers there.

However, something has come up in Seattle, and I need to deal with it in person. It's not serious in a bad way, just serious in a I-Need-To-Deal-With-This way. I suppose it's possible I could get another friend to take care of it. Though, that would be an act of great kindness and the teaching demand will still be in Prague if I wait 5-6 months before returning to try and teach. And yes, that answers your probably question: I plan to return to Seattle for maybe 5-6 months, earn as much money as possible (know of any lucrative jobs??) so I can pay down my credit card a bit and just save some cash for another flight to Europe, then head back to Europe and Prague to see about finding a teaching job. If it falls through in the end, at least I'll travel for a month or so before re-joining the Real World of a Regular Job.

That is, I would be in that world until I had enough money to start travelling again...
