My contract job ended abruptly recently and I'm now in this very situation. I put $10k away for an emergency fund to carry me through until my next gig. No children (someday!), no mortage/debt, no obligations. It's great! While I personally decided not to travel as I've done a lot of that in the past couple years, I have tried to just relax and enjoy the time off. I've been spending time learning new languages and frameworks, working out religiously, eating healthy, and just going with the flow of life. It's been great for my overall happiness. There's a quote that comes to mind after reading this article: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
