Hi fellow Steemit Friends!
Just wanted to post and introduce myself. I'm Roman Lillie (from the US) and I quit my job in Hollywood to travel.
Here I am at the Emmys Award Show. It looks really glamorous on the surface, but working in Television was anything but. It reality it was a brutal and exhausting job that didn't feel at all fulfilling.
I spent all day staring at my computer, doing work I didn't believe in. I was only there for the paycheck, and I wasn't even making a lot of money (Los Angeles is Expensive!).
So I quit my job to travel and I couldn't be happier. My travels have taken me all over Asia, including India (which I loved visiting - I'll post about that soon).
And the travels are continuing. I'm currently based in Thailand because now that I've been traveling, I have no interest in going back to the States and having another mundane desk job. I'm now fully committed to a "location-independent" lifestyle, and living as a digital nomad.
And I'm super excited to join Steemit! Look forward to meeting everyone!
Also, feel free to check out my website if you're curious. I wrote a book about what it's really like working in Hollywood.
