If you could do anything at all, what would it be...
For me I think it would be a travelling food and wine critic.

    Horse trainer, ridding instructor. There are plenty of people just as good or better then me, plus the insurance you should carry barely makes it affordable, at least when your services are affordable and not outrageously expensive.

    Anything that would require travel. Not every day, just like 2-4 days a week, 3 weeks a month. When I worked in retail they used to send me to stores that were a mess and I'd help straighten them out. But it wasn't an actual position, they'd just send me when they needed it. I'd love to do that full time. :)

    I used to travel a lot for work too, putting technology into new stores. And to tie in with MFP, I used to call it the <Customer> Fitness Plan because I was always running around these huge, Costco-sized (or bigger) stores for two weeks and I'd lose about 10 pounds every time.

    Two things really... they are unrelated.

    #1 Travel Photographer/writer. <-- In the Midst of a Photography degree so 1/4 of the way there!!!
    #2 Ski Instructor - for the fun factor <--- actually happening next year after Foot surgery :D

    I am a Winter Junky, it is my favorite season, and I love being on the ski hill traipsing thru the trees, cruising down the groomers and hitting the bumps! it's great! And to be able to share that passion and teach it to others (Never taught before) would be an experience!

    If I won the lottery and had no need for money because my account took care of it. I would go to Law school and I would fight for the causes that I believe in or take cases for folks that can't afford a lawyer and need help. :)

    My dream career...

    I would love Christer Björkmann's job... he's executive producer of Sweden's Melodifestivalen which is a series of TV programmes the purpose of which is to select Sweden's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest. :smokin:


    In real life I'm a commercial project manager for a US-owned, globally trading company that provides technologies and services to the hotel and travel industry. :happy:

    I would have said this a few years ago but now I know how much work it takes to get there... I don't want it that bad :\

    I think now it would be Speech and Language Pathologist. I'm looking at programs now.

    I want to be the person who goes around to homes for the disabled (Mental and Physical) or the elderly, to inspect the house/programs. I want input on how they live, how they are treated, if they are being allowed to make decisions about their money and how the schedules are set up. Basically make sure human rights are being met and opinions are being valued. I want to be involved in disability law. Basically they can come to me if they are being mistreated and I will help them in court to get their rights upheld. Not too sure what the title is ..I know a socialworker who goes in and checks out the I.P.P's and helps tweek them to be more humane... but I am not sure he has much say in the way the house is ran over all.

    I want to live in an "exotic" locale - right now, undecided between Belize and Ecuador - and offer week-long "raw vegan, vegan, and meditation/Reiki retreats" for discerning guests.

    Basically, get paid to live in paradise. :happy:

    Me three!! BUT I do have to say my second choice would be a photographer, which is what I am. So I can't complain. I would love to shift gears in my work, though and do a lot more fine art than I do now... that's my current dream and goal.
