I'm at a crossroads in my life , having achieve my initial goals, which were to successfully raise a family & have a comfortable lifestyle.
Done all the traveling, partying , dating etc.

Any suggestions?

Yes . But my work only covers school term time, which leaves me 6 weeks to kill!

Really? wow


I have travelled the world by myself



If someone is around to go when I want to go, then great, but I have never, ever, not gone somewhere just because of a lack of travelling companion

Ireland is family-oriented too.

But that doesn't stop each member from being an independent being


Break free of your self-imposed constraints, and live a little! dancing
