I am 27 I live in Europe, I am married without children. I work as a software developer in a large company, with a monthly salary between €6000 and €7000, working remotely. Although my current project is interesting and my team is excellent, I no longer feel passionate about IT and am looking to explore new horizons.

I know that my current situation is envied by many (working from home, good salary), but I believe that I am capable of more.

My goal is to embark on a new adventure, first alongside my current job, then to devote myself fully to it.

I aspire to financial and geographic independence in the coming years and am willing to take risks and invest time and energy. I am also willing to work hard for a few years to achieve this. I am looking for advice and ideas for a new career or business opportunities.

Do you have any suggestions or experiences to share that might help me with this transition?

    You have good work experience, next time you’re working and you notice something inefficient or poorly optimised take note of it in your phone.

    Think of ways you could minimise those inefficiencies and work to produce something which beats the current options.
