Feel free to comment me suggestions. A lot of the states I have neither visited nor studied thoroughly. Set me on my path and you could say that you were the one who got me to one of my 50 jobs. I welcome suggestions and appreciate those who have an interest in what I’m attempting.
Other ideas: Mine work, carpentry, sheep ranching, construction, antique repair…

Tori, this seems like such a great idea and I can’t wait to read all about your travels over the coming years, I’m sure in no time your life will be much more exciting than mine! I just read an article relating to this post here (http://www.dailyfinance.com/2010/12/16/the-new-migrant-workers-living-on-the-road-in-rvs-working-temp/) and thought you may like to read it.
