    Its a no brainer.. go travelling. You'll be all the better for it, plus you'll have a great time. The missus and I went RTW this year for three months, didn't spend anywhere near 25k and had a great time. Been before too for longer, been all over. Its the main reason I work.

    Set to finish my contract which has lasted just about 1 year and 3 months.

    - I don't have a mortgage
    - I recently no longer have a girlfriend and am mourning
    - All I pay is rent
    - I have about 25k in my business account where I pay myself from and lots more in my personal savings

    Should I look for a new contract or go traveling?

    And why not film yourself doing a dance in each place you visit, then get sponsored by a chewing gum manufacturer to do it all over again.

    Ah, wait, somebody already did that

    Go to South America for 2 months mate. Cheap as chips and trust me, you will not be mourning when you get back. I spent 6 weeks in Rio. Best time of my life, ever!!!!
