Please be a little specific in your plan, not just "travel". Where do you want to travel ?

Book a private jet to go to California with my family. I've always really liked the idea of California and I also have a really good friend that lives there! 😃

Prioritize exercise. Try to gear towards being able to run a marathon and doing some strength training and yoga.

Cook more for myself. I don't think I'd go full vegetarian, but I'd probably have less meat dishes overall.

Try to learn Spanish or Portuguese using one of those quick learning methods.

Take at least two cross continent trips. One would be between the two inhabited North American coasts. The second would either be Europe from Portugal to Finland, Australia, or the Americas from North to South.

Maybe live in a low cost Spanish or Portuguese speaking city for a month.

I kind of did this once! Essentially I got laid of from a job but happened to have a good money buffer and life was quite inexpensive at the time, so I just thought "fuck it" and went as long as I could without working, I made it about a year.

It was awesome! My mental health has never been better, I wrote most of a book, got pretty decent at Blender, started working on learning to make games... and then I had to go back to work and it all went to shit lol, that was several years ago and I haven't touched any of it since.
