Seriously there has to be a way.

Sometimes I feel I was born about 100 years or so too late. It is too easy to get tied down in this modern world we live in. I feel utterly overwhelmed when I look at how many school loans I have yet to pay off. I'd love to disappear to some remote village in some foreign country for a couple of years, even if I just live by the sweat of my brow, hunting and gathering. But there are too many financial obligations back home to worry about. I could simply just ditch them all, but in the event of wanting to return home and visit family, I'd probably be snatched up and thrown in jail for having not payed any of my debt for over two years.

But if you could find something that pays you, like a job on a cruise liner (somebody has to wash the sheets, clean the dishes, scrub the deck, prepare the meals, hand out towels, and sell drinks on those things). You could be getting paid and getting away all at once. If I lived anywhere near the coast, I would have gone out today and found the head quarters for every cruise place I could find and dropped in applications.
