Cross Roads.

 

They say "only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."

I am inclined to believe this to be true. My recent travels have me ready to change up some things in my life. I find I have been playing things safe for the last 10 years. 

I had to quit my job recently. In the beginning it was a good gig. I was making like 650 a week without really trying. But then the rules changed and I had new parts of my contract. I wasnt able to fulfill my agreement. I had to cancel my contract because I was working my ass off and around the clock to have $250 a week. I did the responsible thing which was I told my boss I need time to regroup. She said when I am ready to try again I can be rehired. It was nice because I could work from anywhere. The downside is there was so much restrictions on the way the way they wanted it done it didnt feel authentic anymore. I had to memorize 6 characters. Had to keep people on the phone for 20 minutes or I get a redirect.

    I have been on youtube since I got to Los Angeles about van life. I thought to myself I must be mad. I want to live in my car. My father was a truck driver. I did not know him personally. The road made him happiest. I am starting to understand how he could feel that way. When I was driving all over Los Angeles I felt so free. I was sad when I had to go home. I tried to get a job. I went to almost 20 job interviews in a week. I am ready to go live in my car in Los Angeles. I want that call center job. I also have been looking into what other van lifers do for work. Remote work would be ideal.

    I am doing the Van life for me. I want to see and experience everything I can before I die. I want to see the country. I do not want to need others to be happy. I can be happy on my own. I really want to do this. Your average person will never understand living a car... but never give a thought to truckers basically do just that.

    I will keep you posted on where things progress to. Have a good night.
