Hello Again
Hey everyone,
My name is Ed. I had been a member before, and you guys helped me out a ton with my trip to Europe a few years ago. I forgot my username and such, so just signing back in. I will have some questions for you soon I am sure as I work to decide what my next move is.

Thanks for the warm welcome. When I returned from my Europe trip, I decided to enroll and college, and get my degree. Partially because I failed out right after high school, and it has always been hanging over my head.
I am about halfway through school, and have been doing school and work full time now for 2 and a half years, saving and grinding away.
Lately I have been thinking of leaving my job, and finding some other type of work. I thought of maybe working at a resort somewhere, or something like that, who knows.
I am also saving for a undecided long term trip...I have about 8k right now. Possibly considering a long term us road trip type of trip. Using couchsurfing and such to meet people and in a sense rediscover America.
So who knows right now, my mind is thinking of a lot of stuff, but it is hard to narrow things down to one choice.

I did a greyhound across America to New Orleans, if you want any advice I am happy to help. It can be a great way to see America.
