Just wondering if others think the same.

The thing is though its Hard to not be blinded during vacation.

Vacation is just different than living at the place.

I have no experience whatsoever but here in germany I feel like I am missing out on life. I wonder how cool it would be just to be a dive instructor or working at animal sancuarys around the world.

I understand its not chill how it is on vacation working a bit and bbq and beers with the plebs. So much going on behind the scenes and the pay sucks. I wouldnt be able to live how I live now.

But maybe life doesnt have to be comfortable to be better and I should try it?

My job and pay here is just too good but not good enough to volunteer more in how I would like to. Money will run out eventuelly and then what?

I dont think I should be living from vacation to vacation at the same time 80% of the humans dont even have this luxery I have..

I also live in Germany, in a relatively small town near a big city. And I like it here. On foot I am in the forest in five minutes and for shopping etc. I am in the city within about 10-20 minutes both by car or bus. The only thing that really bothers me are the sometimes high temperatures in the summer. If I left Germany, I would probably go north. But for now, I will stay.
