Do you ever think about leaving everything behind and starting a totally new life?

Sometimes I think about leaving the country, moving somewhere slower. Maybe I could open a bar near a ski lodge or something. Get a new identity too so nobody can find me.

I don't think it would work out like that though. I'd probably end up with the same problems anyway.

My current plan is to move to the south island of new zealand, probably christchurch, and either work as an academic or freelance writing anything.

phd.

I have sort of done that in a way but kept the ties because the novelty of moving elsewhere and expecting fireworks and glamour are not gonna happen. The grass is just as brown and dry on the other side of the fence most of the time.

no, but we might go live elsewhere just for some ideas. I've seen people do that. don't go to france... very hard to get started unless have $.

It is called a geographical escape. The core problem is you take yourself along in the escape.
