Hey guys,
I want to experience living in another country for a while, and just have some time to get up to shenanigans and grow as a person. Plus I've been in school my entire life, and always living with somebody, and I'd like to experience just not having commitments for a while when I finish up with uni. I was thinking maybe 3 months, since it's short enough for me to be able to fund it without working during that time, but long enough to actually do some stuff. Has anybody tried this before? How was it? Where did you go, and do you regret it?
>Pic semi related; how I feel in my current country sometimes, knowing that if I don't take a break after uni and before full time work, it'll just get harder

Figured I'd post my current plan, which I've done exactly 15 minutes of research on. Literally my first idea, so I'm definitely not married to it.
>Go to Thailand
>Relatively low cost of living
>Rent one bedroom apartment for 3 months
>Spend the time focusing on bodybuilding and learning Muay Thai (been lifting for a while, and been doing martial arts since I was little)
>Relatively low cost of living, so I'd hope I could cover all my stuff like rent, internet, food and utilities for about 1500AUD a month
>Go out and party with tourists and shit when I'm bored
>Go to other areas in Thailand and do generic tourist shit
>Get up to shenanigans and while away my days doing whatever I want
>Come back to home country (Australia) ready to resume my life

Or, you can save that money, get a job and move out of your mom's basement, then travel when you have some cash set aside?
Going to Thailand to "grow as a person" by doing jack shit all day. Jesus christ.
