ok, so ive got to make some pretty big decisions pretty fast, and im really not sure what to do! im planning to go travelling in 2011 for a year, after working for just over a year between now and then.
However, ive just got back from being in america for four months, and i have a grand debt to pay off from that.
I cannot currently get a job, not for a lack of trying.
My target of saving 10-12k in a year is looking a little bit silly....
I dont know what to do!! should i postpone travel for a year, do my year of further study (ive already got a degree) and meanwhile also earn a bit more money....
should i postpone travelling for like a few months to save a bit more money, although this would mean not seeing some things i want to see whilst travelling because of time of year etc...
or should i go with whatever i earn, get as far as it will take me and maybe have to come home early....
OR...should i earn what i can, and take out a loan for the rest?
has anyone taken out loans for travelling? is it pretty easy to do or is it a really really bad idea?
sorry for the epic message, any advice anyone has got would be awesome!! thanks |
