It’s going to take all day either way with or without stops. You’ll have to eat either before, during or after the drive.
To me, anything more than 4 hours is a 1 day drive.
If someone said 10 hour drive, I’d assume that’s the time on the road without stops. The context being not about distance anymore, but about for long you’re going to sit in a car, to plan for breaks, hotels and splitting the drive.
Also flights. A two hour flight is from start to landing, even if the entire thing also includes two hours before checking in and half an hour to collect the luggage and finding a taxi out of there etc. The 2 hour is only for making the decision of when to eat and what to bring on board. Same thing with long drives.
It’s already a product. It was invented by a Danish company in 1974. Unsurprisingly it’s called “langæg” = “long egg”
It’s used widely by restaurants and sandwich cafés.
It’s not made as a cake though and I’m not sure if OPs recipe would even work, as it’d likely mix before setting.
The way they’re made on the factory is by separating the yolks from the egg whites by centrifugation. Basically all the eggs that aren’t sold due to cracks or sizes or shell color are tossed into a centrifuge. The white and yolk have different mass, so they separate easily that way.
The white is then slightly cooked while being centrifuged again at somewhat slower speed.The yolk can then be added and cooked fully.
Great question. It is impossible for anyone living paycheck to paycheck. Hell, everything outside the hamster wheel is impossible in that case, so first thing is to make a savings account and a budget that allows you to put any amount into savings. If that is not possible, you seriously need to find another job or at least ask for raise. Otherwise you’re wasting your life making money for someone else.
It doesn’t necessarily cost a lot to travel for a long time, but it does require a return ticket and a way to cover the cost of starting a new life when you return. Depending on how easy it is to get a job on return you’ll need savings to do that. I noticed that the backpackers I’ve met have all ended up in larger cities where jobs are easy to get. Even if it’s only temporarily that is a good plan. Just be careful to always keep a surplus so you can advance out of fast food jobs later on.
Anyway that’s my suggestion. Plan and enable the return and you’re good to go. All you need then is to save up as much as you’re willing to spend on your travel.
Some people are able to do it with a whole family and that requires a whole other situation in which you should have a job as you travel. I know a pair who managed to it by landing a hotel review service. Their job was basically to take pictures and make descriptions of hotels worldwide. Unfortunately that is more of a job than leisure and it’s hard to get that kind of job. Some of the YouTubers are probably doing something like that.
Being a travel guide is also a really good way to experience different places while working, though it’s badly paid and less free. It allows to see some of the more popular tourist locations.
If you have children in school ages it requires a lot more effort and a job and location that is more fixed, but that is also an option if you can find it. Large companies might want a local representative which could be a pretty neat job. Most countries have school programs for international visitors. Much research is required.
I once met a guy from England who had his whole family along, while he was teaching English on a small unknown island in the Pacific Ocean for a few years. I have no idea of how he got that job, but that’s also way to see more of the world, though it’s more of an immigration than travelling. I think it shows that you don’t have to keep running in a local hamster wheel. There are hamster wheels in other places too. :)
It would be nice if governments could make a “software union”, pledging to use the same standards. It seems that everyone is inventing the wheel separately in every country or falling back on commercial industry standards.
F.i. the exchange of financial documents. There’s a standard coming along called SAF-T, and even if it is a standard, every country using it are making their own definitions of what it is. There are also some countries that already have their own completely different standard. The crazy thing is that almost every country worldwide are asking for the exact same info on tax returns, but they’ve all individually come up with that. Only differences is the order of fields on the form.
Same with user identification. Every country has their own almost identical solution for identification, which however does not work across borders, despite the similarities.
Everything comes with a cost. To be successful in one area means missing out in others. Everyone likes to post their success on Facebook or LinkedIn, but they also don’t post about all the evenings spent arguing with their wife or missing out on their children growing up or whatever. Success is not easily defined.
Most people like to keep things balanced, as in not having extreme losses in one area, but that also means that they’re not successful in something particular. That kind of balance is a success in itself, though it’s rather invisible.
You’re not supposed to do anything in your life. When the grim reaper comes along you won’t be able to bring it along.
You’re not dead. Be successful in whatever you want.
The experience is different because it’s not one algorithm for everyone.
Demographics are targeted differently. If you actually get a real feed, it’s only because no one has yet paid YouTube for guiding you towards their product.
It would be an interesting experiment to set up two identical devices and then create different Google profiles for each just to watch the algorithm take them in different directions.
Put it on a list and make a note of what you need to solve each issue and any deadlines.
It’s important to do it on an actual list, either a piece of paper or in some note app. You should not attempt to keep track of every in your head. That’s exactly what is stopping you from doing any of it.
Once it’s on your list you can take your mind off it and start solving one thing at a time. When you try to solve something on the list you might find that you can’t solve right there and then. Put that obstacle on the list as a side quest to the main task. There’s no need to concern yourself with things that you can’t do anything about. Move on to the next solvable issue.
