A physically challenging months long adventure when you are young is a must I think. Go climb some metaphorical mountain somewhere, it'll feed your soul when you get to the "creaky" years that come to all.

You can become location and financially independent simply by driving a semi truck, but then you look back and think, well I lost all that time being with loved ones and growing roots in one place. So life is perfectly, imperfect. Be happy where you are, so you can see where you want to be.

Best advice I can give is do exactly what you want to be doing right now. Don't wait. Being financially and location independent is a *choice*, if that's something that's important to you make that choice and do it now. The longer you wait, the more likely you will look back and regret it; you will get too old to do the things you had imagined doing when you were younger.
