I got no wife, no kids, bored with life, haven't seen a single thing outside the U.S. in all my 30+ years, and dread my job. My last day on the job was today *cheers*. A couple weeks ago I booked a one way ticket to Sweden (I leave January 8th). I got no plan, no accommodations, and no itinerary, Im just simply going. The only slight plan I got is eventually ending up in Norway around March and finding work (Ive been taking Norwegian language lessons the last month). Go ahead and ask away.....

Money isn't everything huh. When you die you don't say you wish you had more money, you say you wished you would of experienced more and spent more time with loved ones.

Did the same OP, but from Australia > US. It'll be definitely worth it, trust me. A rollercoaster, but plenty of highs. Enjoy it.

Good luck.

Good luck bro. A lot of people forget that jobs are easy to get and waste their life clinging to a decent job in fear because they don't think they could get a similar one. You will be fine man. Enjoy the tall blondes..

That takes a lot of courage, all the best to you bro. But pepper your angus, because going from Texas --> Sweden, especially in the winter, is going to be a big culture shock.

Hahaha. Niceee.Originally Posted by KingHarry
Feels absolutely wonderful. Had my boss call me 3 days ago, and I guess he forgot I gave my 2 weeks notice. He was bitc*ing at me for something, raised his voice, and was talking to me like a child. I kept playing my video game and asked if he could repeat what he just said (I could care less what he had to say and I was concentrating on my game, felt good brah). Nothing worse then going through life feeling like a serial number getting talked down to just to make a buck.Originally Posted by eac1005
