 . First things first, what's your definition of "BIG CHANGE IN SCENERY", is it moving from country-side haven to the smoky hell , or moving from green landscapes to the grey skyscrapers, or just an vegabond escapade?!! And the next obvious question- what are you good at, what are your strengths? Are you a mimic artist, a SW guy, a scuba-diver, a guitarist, a con-man (potential tout ), or just another guy with vivid dreams and blurred vision! I hope this will set you thinking... which is a forgotten skill anyway  !!note:Crossposted with iloveindia1234!

Do you have all your limbs? Are they all in working order?
Yes? Never mind, there is a doc who will amputate to order to increase your earnings as a street beggar. |
