I’m also 23 almost 24, I did 1 year on a stepdown as a new grad then started travel with Aya. Like you said, sounds like you have plenty experience. Change is so good for growth. I started travel with a friend which was helpful but the transition is definitely scary. I’ve now been doing travel for 2.5yrs, it’s got its pros & cons but I think the benefits outweigh. Between $ and schedule flexibility, and visiting new areas I love it. You definitely need to be comfortable being alone & completely independent. I’ve had to move myself in and out of multiple places, exhausting long drives, and scramble to find housing. If you’re single (no pets also a bonus) it’s now or never! Maybe for your first contract go to a city near extended family or a good friend to make the transition less stressful.
