It doesn't matter how, when, or why...travel or live abroad for at least 2+months. It's never too late to do it! It forced me to sell everything except 2 bags and reevaluate life. You get to see how people live with so little, yet can be happy, including yourself. Its never encouraged or discussed in U.S. culture, which in hindsight I find ridiculous. American parents should encourage their children at min. to take a walkabout/gap year to gain at least a bit of perspective. I never got that chance, but I still moved abroad after a quarter-life crisis, and its the best thing I've ever done.
