Am I too old to start the journey?
I’m 27, turning 28 in May. My question is how will my age affect me in this new life? Right now i’m a corporate dev earning $145k per year. If i quit and start freelancing in thailand, i’d be lucky to make $30k my first year. Eventually i want to be settled with a woman around my mid 30s and i have to make pretty good money for that. Moving to Thailand will be a big hit for me financially and I’m wondering if I’m just too old to recover from that. Please tell me how your age affects you on your journey.

Thanks all for the advice. I guess the biggest thing holding me back is fear. I am currently visiting Thailand for 2 weeks and it is exactly what I hoped it’d be and more. The people of Chiang Mai are positive and I feel good here. The women are also abundant and male competition is low. This is reason enough to move here and try the digital nomad scene, but it will not be easy. I have a big life to leave behind. I’m recently engaged, started a new job, and bought a house a few months ago… However I’m miserable. I’ve been wanting to move to thailand for a while but i resisted the call. Well i’ve been called again and this time i will answer. Wish me luck.
