It's definitely the Holy Grail, isn't it? Finding something that pays where you don't have to force yourself to do it (or at least 80% of it. I'm never going to enjoy doing the tax return, no matter what I do...) Unfortunately, my budgetary constraints are pretty damn tight at the moment, and international travel is probably not on my agenda :( @Arline

Which will probably involve more travelling and less of what I 'should' be doing, like trying to build up my business. But at the end of it, I may have figured out what I actually want to do and have enough enthusiasm that I don't have to force myself to do it. Here's hoping. BTW, Zurich is still photogenic and runnable. ^_^ I think — for my sanity — that I’m going to get rid of some things that worry me and/or that I regret.

Luckily it is getting better so I am sure you will be fine. Any time you fancy company on one of your runs, just let me know :) Matt, it is always hard work when you get back into running after a long lay-off, as I am discovering to my cost.
