Dreading the thought of going home

    been off travelling for a few months and dreading coming home. i attempted to earn income while travelling but its very difficult to break into the market of online income. i found a girlfriend abroad and everything but my savings are so low that I need to go home and replenish them for a year or 2 in ireland. but the thoughts of it is making me feel terrible.

    I just wasn't happy at home. the food, the weather, negative family members, terrible social life and not liking my job were all factors in my unhappiness. but since ive been travelling a lot of that has been improved.

    I guess im just wondering firstly, is whether or not its feasible to spend my 20's working for a year or 2 and going off again? secondly, what do I do about this girl? I love her but I cannot stay in her country without money. She advised me to go home and work for a couple of years then head back to her country but im worried the distance will destroy everything. mainly thought im just wondering how i can get into a positive mindset about having to go home? I can already feel a sense of impending dread about it. like ill sink back into the same sh*tty life I had before. I could probably take off again to travel in a year or 2 but the prospect of having to be home for that length of time is painful. Guess i am just looking for advice or words of encouragement.

    Apple have work from home jobs that may be worth checking out. You don't have to come back to Ireland. The UK or other areas of Ireland are an option. Often its about the people around us and there are good ones here too, you just have to be in the right places to find them.
