Want an Asian traveling companion, who is fed up with his life of monotony and longs for adventure, intrigue, and suspense that he had in his early 20's
We could be like Hirschfeld and Ling
Matt, I know the feeling, I like to think of myself as a well traveled soul, I've been in the halls of power, help make laws, help break laws, fought for what I believed was right and defend things I disagree with personally, and lived a middle class quiet existence.
I am nearing 30, my life is long from being over, but I can feel the age of responsibility now on my back, too.
My best advice, don't just stick to one area if you want to expand your horizon, if you like teaching, why not attempt adult training instead of childhood education. It's not just physical therapy, there's people and schools out there that teaches disabled people how to live without eyes, ears, and limbs in normal workplaces. Some of it is technical education with new equipment/software, other is cognitive education with advanced techniques like using vibration or mental associations with concepts.
You have a lot to offer the world, don't forget that Matt.
Your friend and Fellow New Englander,
