Compromise. That seems to be a recurring topic for me lately.

You want to be financially stable? Then grab whatever travel opportunity that will come your way. Save up, but you have to be far away from home.

In a few weeks I might leave home temporarily. I'll be heading to Melbourne for work. I'll be there for the next 12 months. Sure, I'll be flying home, for 2 weeks at a time every 3 months, I'll be home to catch up with family and friends.

I've always wanted to travel. I've always wanted to spend time (and yes, even work and temporarily transfer) to another country. Well, this is my chance and I'm not passing it up. But its not supposed to be easy.

Twelve months away from home.

Wow.
