Absolutely true. I've researched employment options, and chosen something which is quite a bit harder, but I have a knack for it, learned from the early age from my father, who was famous for it, and is actually something that I really like doing.
That something is massage, of the Russian medical & acupressure variety. Since it usually takes some time for massage practice to get off the ground once you move to a new place, other thing I do are Russian/English translations, and Steemit is a great opportunity in that area. :-)
I also have some income from renting out my flat, but that is somewhat offset by some financial liabilities, that I have to address to fully utilize this resource. I do plan to get rid of them by the end of the year.

Followed you, since the topic of my interest is similar to yours, as well as one of the main themes of my blog. However, I think you've made a better start, because I only plan on writing on which changes in my life I had to make, as well as the reasons why I chose such a life style.
