As much as it sucks having to show up at a job every day I still think your current existential crisis finds you in better shape than where many people find themselves... Every indication (okay, not really but) of your dissatisfaction stems from an issue of budgeting time and money to allow you to pursue the myriad of interests you hold... You've got the eyes wide, the optimism and the gumption-- you just need to figure out how to achieve the exploration and still be able to afford that luxurious lifestyle you lead... Perhaps you need to become more mercenary in your employment or perhaps you need to cut out some less than neccessary attachments but currently your head seems to be above water... Billions of people live their lives without any idea as to what to do with them and you're more at risk of drowning in the things you wanna do... Tread water but keep a keen lookout for the life-raft that's bound to come along... Sucks for now but it's better than straining to find some desert island that'll suck you dry... Plus I'll never get my shit together to visit you in Taiwan so I just don't see how that works for me...
