RE: Reflections on my experience with homelessness, Part 3
I don't know much about your circumstances, but if your not married to Seattle, it would be a good idea to travel south. Sleeping in the cold winter of the north will eventually harm your lungs.
Population centers of size will have high competition and entrenched job markets. If you can't find a variety of openings that fit your skills niche, you may have to travel out of that job market.
You mentioned earlier about being introverted. Although you have become skilled at city life, as I'm sure you have found out, city life doesn't solve the feelings of being alone, and the awkwardness of being surrounded by thousands of people, but very few actually seeing you.
If your looking for people that actually see you, you may need a smaller population center to engage in. Small towns of 200 to 2000 are usually good for introverts. Enough people to have a job market, but still few enough that your personality/character is recognized (if you want it to be).
Maybe you can think through your skills niche as you travel. I say all this as if you were a long standing friend and don't mean to offend if I sound too structured, or don't know all the issues. Kindest regards.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Good ideas.
