I know this seems odd, but I spend my life on here...
After a pretty eventful week, I am now a house sold, a missus down, pup aside(hehe, cheeky trapper knows who loves him.) and basically, in a mindset to 'eff of and go.
If of any consequence, my old man is garaging the Morgan(with his), and the brother is taking on my plebian (civil) engineering gig(pop and squeek at best! as the poms would call it :P )
I have ambitions of share trading but not at the expense of lifestyle, haha, so its no move to canary island or wharf or whatever is not on the cards.
any ideas team?
Hard to know what to suggest as I don't know much about you.
I'd have said that Civil Engineering is a pretty portable skillset. Maybe you should travel around a bit & see if anywhere catches your fancy.
For example, some of my French friends, a civil engineer & his wife decided (after the wife had overcome breast cancer) to "carpe diem" & build a boat to sail over to the carribbean. They did this about 5 years ago. Patrick's speciality is hydraulic engineering, and it didn't take him long to find consulting work out there - first a 2 year drinking water project in Trinidad, followed by a project in Saint Martin. Right now he is working on a project in Barbados. They're loving it, and really seem to be living the dream.
