You have some really tough decisions to make! You need to take your time and weigh out the pros and cons. Hasty decisions are never a good idea. I can understand your dilemma. I don't know if I could do town living again or not but who knows, life may have some different plans for me in the future...Take your course because it is something you are passionate about. Decide later how you want to work it out. @eveningart has an excellent suggestion. I hope it all works out well for you!

Andygirl!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you can figure out the best of all worlds - OR - be jet-setted into the journey of a lifetime with the BEST possible ending!  something that you never would have chosen on your own.... but something that will thrill you and fulfill you beyond your wildest dreams!

can't wait til November 2019. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I used to charge a pretty penny for erotic massages. That's a good line of work if you can 'hand'le it ;)

Hi Andy- how exciting, I hope you enjoy the training and it's something you fall in love with doing. I have to admit, it is something that has always called to me, and I've been considering doing a short-course later this year to get a feel for it.

Okay - a suggestion... How far is the town from you? There is a place in our town (UK) which is set up as a treatment centre and rooms- a bit like a mini-spa, and the practitioners there rent the room space. So for example, they book their clients in to meet there- perhaps on Tuesdays and Thursdays and work from there. It gives them the safety of not inviting strangers to their home for treatment, and not working in a stranger's home either. The set up and ambiance are perfect- and you slot your treatments in. Any chance this could work for you if you have something similar in your area? Or you could look at doing treatments at retreats, festivals and other events- so you are travelling to specific things with a captive audience to give treatments- but don't have to move permanently?

I really hope it works out for you.

@eveningart's comment gave me an idea. It's something I would love to do myself, and it's been on my list of "what I would do if I won Lotto" for years. In Dannevirke, you wouldn't need as much money as in Wellington though.

Before I say what it is - notice your reaction to it. I expect it would either be "No, it doesn't really grab me" or "omg, I would love to do that, but there's no way in the world I could ever afford it."

We've been looking at options for how to get you mortgage free, but this is something that would go the other way and would need outside input. There are 3 potential properties currently on the market that you haven't even thought of because they'd be too dear, though 2 of them, we don't even know what they're asking for.

These three properties are all a bit out of town but more like 10-15 mins rather than 30, have some land and either already have sufficient rooms or have room to add some.

Ok, I'm finally ready to tell you - a healing centre. Somewhere that people could come to for a single appointment, for an afternoon or a day, or to have a few days retreat. You could have other therapists, and a spa and infra red sauna. You'd be the one renting out the rooms.

That 1910 place has huge rooms that could be used for talks, exercise classes, training. You could get people to come and give classes.

It's big, it's ambitious, it's completely crazy, but it lights a fire under my butt and it would excite me no end. If it has the same effect on you, put it out there into the Universe and see what happens. I've put it here on the blockchain instead of just saying on the phone, in case it gives you or any of your other friends some ideas on how to make it, or something similar. happen.

John Kehoe, Wally Wattles, and many others would say - you don't have to know how it's going to happen, you just need to know whether you want it or not.

I'm looking forward to see more about your business. We ordered goat milk formula powder for our babies from New Zealand. There is a strong Asian products for healthy things but it goes in trends. Right now avocados are hot.

The lotions and potions sounds like a great idea and goes well with the massage craft. Keep us informed.

Sure is a lot you have to think about and tough decisions to make, I think doing the massage course is a great idea to give you more options, as to moving or staying I feel you would really prefer to stay out of a town but it may not be an option, I dont think I can give any advise other than weigh the pros and cons both with your brain and your heart :)

I'm sure that whatever you put your hand to you will do a great job @andysantics. It's hard to offer advice because you know what is available in the area where you live.  I wish you all the very best and look forward to hearing of your progress.

This kind of dilemma is difficult, especially when the two options pull in opposite directions with about the same strength, and each has its pros and cons. Our family is currently spread out in three places, way too far from each other, and we're always thinking that one day, we want to live closer together. I know we'll find a way but it will involve compromise on all sides.

It's great that you have something you know you will enjoy and I'm sure you'll find a way to make it happen. I'd also like to check out your products if you send me the link to your website. Good luck with everything!
