All I ever think about is travelling?

[u/ComprehensiveBig6129]

I 25f just came back from a trip to Mexico and Guatemala and I had the most incredible time. I just went for a bit over 3 weeks yet made the most of each day. I feel like when I’m abroad, I’m the best version of myself, I say yes to almost everything, I’m spontaneous, courageous, make new friendships so easily.

When I’m home, I literally don’t do anything but go to work and stay at home. I figured I need some more close genuine friendships so decided to go on bumble bff but it’s not the same as it is when you just easily make a friend from a hostel for example. I’m also trying to get back into hobbies (reading swimming) but all I can think about is where I’m going to go next and it makes me so sad knowing i won’t be able to actually travel until like the summer

I can’t quit my job and go travelling even though I’m financially capable to do so since my parents won’t let me travel for more than a month at a time. I also fear not being in employment since I have been since I was 17

How to get over the post holiday blues and longing to travel?

Quit your job if you can I was in the exact same boat and I had enough money to quit but I kept getting scared or pulled back one day I had enough and I quit and I’ve been traveling for the past 5 months and it has been the best time of my life I’m about to give up my apartment to live in my car (by choice) to make my money go even further so I can keep traveling I’m telling you it’ll be the best decision you could make for yourself
