This line really speaks to the reality check many need when dreaming about a work-and-travel lifestyle.
As an Expat/Traveler for many years myself, I know first hand how easy it is to romanticize working from paradise, but in practice, balancing a full-time job with wanderlust can be more exhausting than we imagine.
Your candid example of teaching in Thailand highlights just how demanding it can be, especially in less-than-ideal conditions.
It’s a valuable reminder that the "dream" still requires a lot of grit and sacrifice.
Thanks for sharing this grounded perspective!
