So, I'm in a similar position. I turn 26 tomorrow, being hte only difference I'm a HS math teacher and, well, I enjoy it, but I -hate- the area I'm in. I do enjoy the job and there's none of the usual BS that goes along with teaching, thankfully. And it's in a high-need field in a low-income district, so my loans will be repaid after 10 years.
But, I'm not really enjoying it. I would love to move to Ireland, and have taught myself some developing skills to do that. I've applied to developing jobs here in America, but because I live in the rural South, I haven't been able to network much. I'm seriously considering going back to school in Ireland and trying to use that to network but more loans scare me.
Overall, I'm just not in a good place, and feel like I need to make a change. What advice would you have to give to someone who's in a roughly similar situation to what you were 7 years ago?
