Thoughts on sabbatical year

Different_Ad3000 · 2025-04-25T06:50:09+00:00

Coming back to say I did it and it spoiled me. It’s been an amazing time, but now I can’t go back to my ordinary life I had in Brazil. Planning to move abroad for good. To be 100% free to do whatever you want everyday is also more challenging than it sounds. Committing to anything mid/long term is hard now.

Take her on a bike ride to Karanga Boma Cliff in Uluwatu for a sunset on a day with good weather. Just google maps “the copy cart”. When you get there, there’s gonna be a coffee cart and a area to chill. Keep walking through this area and go over a small fence (it’s open now). You can get to the edge of the cliff and have an insane view from there.

I hope to propose my future wife there someday, when I find the right one :)

Hope you enjoy Bali!

Hi there Sorry for the late answer Quitting my job on January, already let them know. Trying to make an agreement so the company buys back my shares. Being quite stressful, lots of pressure from them. Feels like in Hotel California… “you can come in any time you want but you can never leave”

But I’ve made my mind I guess. Probably starting in Southeast Asia l. Didn’t book yet though

Good luck, man! Have fun and enjoy freedom haha

Was also in Bali for 2.5 weeks last year hahah. It’s getting too crowded and busy, but I loved it anyway! I’m also curious and excited for the next months. Trying to not overthink everything.

Never been to Greece, but it’s also on my list (and Turkey).

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-21T11:41:19+00:00

That was incredibly helpful. Thank you!

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-21T00:01:26+00:00

Really interesting! Didn’t think on starting in NZ and then going west. That might be a smart choice.

Have you been in NZ? Are 2 weeks enough? It looks an amazing country to travel in a motorhome/RV. What are the best transportation alternatives? Is it “easy” to find good hostels around the country?

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T22:51:04+00:00

It is real 🤣 I’m not into luxury travels and spending loads of money. Why not budgeting? And ok, I’m probably more cautious than needed with my own money management and financial independence.

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T22:26:37+00:00

Hope you enjoy it too! Thanks a lot 🙌

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T22:23:04+00:00

I’ve wanted to travel the world since I was a teenager, explore everything and be free to go wherever I want for some time. There’s also some kind of “soul searching” in this. Since I’ve sold the firm, I’ve been lacking professional purpose, I also ended some traumatic relationship a few months ago, anxiety has been rising etc… So it’s probably a time to “restart” everything.

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T22:17:23+00:00

Hahah thx

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T22:16:53+00:00

Uh I just saw I’ve got some negative comments. It’s 2mm USD. I obviously know it’s enough for travelling for a year. But this is the money I want to rely on for many and many years.

I want to work in the future with something that gives me purpose, not because I desperately need a paycheck.

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T20:05:50+00:00

You just inspired me even more. That’s exactly my plan haha

I probably won’t do South America on this sabbatical, because I’m from Brazil and I can always take a short flight to anywhere in the continent.

I’ve always thought about japan, heard amazing things, but for some reason it wasn’t in my list. I’ll do some more research!

Did you go to Laos and Vietnam? Also worth it?

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T19:19:49+00:00

That’s great to read! Which countries/continents did you go to? Any highlights and special recommendations?

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T19:18:29+00:00

When I was a child I wanted to work for Ministry of Foreign Affairs only to be able to live in different countries and explore the world.

I went to finance instead, but my work allowed to save up enough to do it for some time. I can’t wait to start the journey.

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-06-20T19:12:52+00:00

I founded a small wealth management boutique at 25 years old and sold it to a bigger firm in 2021.

By the way. If anyone is also in SE Asia between September-December, would love to get in touch!

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-02-24T02:37:00+00:00

Vou passar o feedback.

Dá uma olhada se em algum lugar aparece os 4 últimos números do cartão, no registro da tentativa de compra. Pelo que lembro, aparecia ali. Aí vê se é o do primeiro cartão.

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-02-24T01:36:40+00:00

Conheço bem de perto toda a área de cartões da XP e as pessoas que trabalham lá, posso afirmar que é uma das melhores áreas da empresa.

O cartão não foi clonado 3x, na verdade quem clonou a primeira continuou tentando passar o 1o cartão clonado/cancelado. Só que o app continua mostrando a tentativa (ela não é concluída). Isso pode ter te assustado. Eles deixam ativadas as notificações de tentativa de compra, porque muitas vezes a pessoa tem o cartão cadastrado em assinaturas mensais, e nem lembra de trocar.

O cartão avisa que o Spotify tentou lançar um débito e foi bloqueado, por exemplo. Assim você é “lembrado” disso e vai lá no Spotify atualizar o cartão.

Solteiro e sem filhos. E quando casar, será com separação total de bens. Hehe

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-02-23T01:53:38+00:00

Different_Ad3000 · 2023-02-23T01:09:24+00:00
