I had it all; an extremely well paying job as an engineer in the oil field, an apartment, and a girlfriend. When the oil market crashed I was laid-off lost my girlfriend and apartment all in the same month. Where most people would have been devastated I saw opportunity. I was free to do what I had always wanted to do, travel. I sold most of my stuff a drove to Alaska from Texas. After that I bought a one way ticket to Europe. Now here I am.
