Stay an extra year at the next job, then you might be able to get a job to do from a distance.
If I lose motivation@work (got some allergy issues around where I am now), I'm thinking of sitting down a few months somewhere cheap with good weather (== sunny) and hack/read.
A question: How do you find apartments to rent for 1-3 months in random countries, like e.g. India or Japan?
- ced 16y agoIt varies a bit depending on the place. The most reliable way is just to ask young people (uni students ideally) on the street. Chances are, they'll be eager to practice their English, and will help you more than you need. I also try to learn the language wherever I go. That helps, obviously. Beware that India is a rough place to be for a lone foreigner. There's numerous anecdotes of people who come to India only to hop right back on a plane. Thailand or Turkey (Antalya) are safer bets, and the temperature is nice in the winter.

I'm mostly worried about my peanut allergy; e.g. Thailand should be straight out. Maybe the rest of SE Asia, too. I had less problems in Japan than in Scandinavia, probably because people there cares about what they do. (Maybe East/West Africa, but that seems to be a bit too much criminality?) Thanks for the help! If I need a computer guy somewhere in Asia the coming years, I'll get in touch... :-)
