Had another tough day on the job? Or perhaps there isn’t even a job to go to anymore. In this economy many people are seeking a change in their lives. Sometimes taking a career break is the perfect way to step back and reflect on what direction your own life can take.
Expert advice on making this change is provided by Jeff Jung, also known as the Career Break Travel Guy. His web site, Career Break Secrets, provides guidance for people looking to make a career break and change their lives. Last April we met Jeff at a travel writing conference in Italy and found him to be truly motivating.
In a recent interview for Jeff’s web site we revealed some of our own career break secrets. Click the link below to read the entire interview and get advice on how you can change YOUR life:

Ah, my two “former neighbor” idols continue to awe others — and me — with their gutsy, passionate listening, looking and learning at all the places I’ve been or want to go to. That’s a career change by name, a life change by fact. Keep going! Cheers!
Fred you’re making us blush. Thanks for the encouraging worlds!

Doing this sounds very tempting. Maybe when I’m retired.
That was our thought too but we wanted to go while we are still relatively young and healthy.

I don’t think you can ever go back to where you were once you have been away
Seeing other places does open your eyes to other possibilities. It sounds likes you speak from experience.

Was a mere 100m compared to your marathon, but it whetted the appetite for more!
Larissa and Michael,
Yes! Me!!! (jumping up and down with hand raised)
In the process of selling most of my possessions to travel – my car is last (I’ll miss her).
Love the theme of the site: very safari and Indiana Jones like.
Good luck to you!
Will
Glad to hear it Will. Good luck on your journey. PS I missed my car too but I got over it. No more repairs to pay for.
