When I meet folks and tell them that I'm unwed and childless, I sometimes get that buck-up-li'l-camper-success-will-find-you sympathy. Those folks get my lemon face. But I get a much different reaction when I tell people that I plan to travel and work remotely.
Most people, when they hear my plans, say something like, "WOW! I'd LOVE to do that.". Humans are such fascinating creatures! So many conflicting interests! I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
Bombarded by contrary messages from culture and counter-culture, are we a schizophrenic people who have trouble telling where our own happiness lies? I used to think I knew.
