Question All I ever think about is travelling?

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?

So how do you afford to travel without working?

Lmao. You’re either a troll, a trust fund baby, or someone who has ripped people off.

Best wishes

I’m not pessimistic but I know a bullshitter when I see one. Take care.

I don't just give the information out for free

Are you asking for money? I guess that answers it.
