"I'll be going wherever I want to go, living wherever I want to live, from a backpack and a bag or two."
The life of a drifter is something I've dreamt about for a long, long time and it sounds like that's the sort of thing you' re planning to do.
Good on you, but be careful and just make sure you're set for it. The idea of jumping into the wild is a fantastic one but reality bites. You've got to be dedicated to living that way or you'll end up without a job, home, money, food... The world is a pretty cruel place mate, so you've got to have a head start with a good load of cash and some knowledge of the situation, for example; a lot of employers won't employ people without a permanent home address, how can you work around that if you're simply living out of a backpack.
Not having a go at ya, I went through a whole 'I'm become a drifter, selling everything and leaving to find my own way in the world' phase a while back but quickly realised I wasn't set up for it. The dream is still alive though so maybe one day. All I;m saying is make sure you know exactly what you are getting into. If that's what you have planned then good luck. :)
As for the gaming side, I'm in pretty much the same position, since the start of this year I've played barely anything. Not yet ready to give up on it completely though.
