I Dreamed a Dream.......

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living,
So different now from what it seemed...
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed...

This is the last stanza from I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables. It is a song of how as children, people have dreams of how their lives will end up. How they will change the world and make it better for mankind. Astronauts, scientists, teachers.... the list is endless.
With whole lives ahead, dreams are a powerful driving force. But sometimes once on a career path, it is not what it seemed to be. The opportunities are sparse, economic influences have adverse effects, advancements in technology, science, medicine make for dead end careers. Buggy Whip, corset anyone?. Eventually reality sets in and life becomes routine, and hopes and dreams fade to the background.
Job.travel offers opportunities in the travel and hospitality industry. If the dreams of you childhood are no longer achievable, maybe a new career is in order? With job.travel, career paths are numerous and positions across the country with possibilities of worldwide postings. So maybe living in an exotic location is not out of the question.
