i know if i come back in another year or three and the prices have gone up 200,000 (and rates) it'll be tough to get back in but fuck we only live once, why spend our capable years doing shit we hate when we can go travel......
sorry for the rant...lots going on in my head

Props to you for doing what you want to do, I had a coworker leave his project manager job 3 years ago, move to the Bahamas' and take a job entertaining tourists on an island resort. His day consists of taking people fishing, snorkeling and basically whatever the hell they want to do. At first I was like that won't last, 3 years later he and his girlfriend are still there enjoying the sun, no stress and no plans to come back anytime soon.
If I didn't have kids I could see myself doing something like this as well, don't get my wrong I don't regret having them but they do handcuff you.
