However, I found that after the initial excitement of returning home, nobody really wants to hear much about it. I experienced the same thing as you when returning from years of travel. Now I am married (my husband also traveled extensively) and we have two kids. We felt that same way. We found two answers to your question re: small business that allows you to travel. My husband read "Four hour work week" and discovered invaluable resources for doing just that. I set up an online travel agency which allows other people to book flights, hotels, cars, vacations, etc through my and also gives me full agent benefits and unbelievable deals. Not only is this perfect for me but others see me as credible in the industry given my travel experience. See my website as a possiblity if you like. Now our life looks like this: live in a "stable" home near family for most of the year but travel from jan-mar to somewhere new each year and homeschool our kids while away.
