If you’ve made it this far you probably already know me. My name is Laura. I feel like I have been writing a lot of cover letters these days and I would like to make this a little more risqué.
I am in fact a professional overthinker and currently I am in a downward spiral. For reference, 2 years ago I took a chance and went to work on a cruise ship. It was amazing, and awful (we will dive deeper into that at a later date). The biggest take away is my life has been changed forever. I can no longer sit still. I feel shackled to my corporate job and stuck in a way I have never felt before. Nothing feels enough. I need to be mobile and on the move. I need to be where I want when I want.
Cue the next idea:
I am looking for a way to move overseas. It has always been a lifelong dream of mine to fully immerse myself into another country by living and working. I have run into so many obstacles. I used to think “oh I have time.” Turns out, unless you are under 25 and recently graduated, extremely rich, willing to marry someone from the country youd like to live, or the top executive in a company, no one wants you. I have talked to lawyers and recruiters alike. I am currently doomed unless I can find a remote job allowing me to put money INTO their economy without taking anything out.
In comes this Idea to finally start working for myself. I would like to be able to make the move. I have no idea what I am going to do, but if I can find a way to make money online, then I can make my dreams come true. Finally be an artist? Finally be a chef? All I know is I want passion and happiness in my day to day. I am not getting that anymore after my adventures overseas.
This blog is to document my adventures, from learning Spanish (hola) to cooking and making menus that are consistent and not burnt to a crisp, to making art, playing piano like lady gaga in A Star Is Born, and maybe even becoming a travel agent. I have absolutely no idea, But I enjoy learning and I like the chase.
Why am I doing this?
Because I needed accountability… and continuing to ask myself the same questions until 2 am felt too dramatic (even for me). So now I’m finally yelling into existence a future I have always dreamed of.
If you’re also a multi-passionate human who struggles to pick a lane (or even a direction), stick around. We can be chaotic together.
WTF AM I DOING
