I just moved from a scottish fishing village to nearish london. I miss the countryside, stars, trees and peace (but not the fish stench).

I telecommute. I'm satisfied with the time and freedom it gives me. But my career is stagnating. Because telecomuting jobs are hard to come by I have to take what I can get. Financially this is frustrating. Worse is that I take jobs where I learn little.

If I didn't have a family I might try short/medium term contracting, and travel as much as I could. As it is I'm wondering if I'll ever make enough money to afford two homes - or if I can get a part time job on a farm.
