    Now they're four cents? Next time these show up, they'll be 3 cents. :emoji_rolling_eyes:

    Yup, three friends. Eh, we just decided to pick a time. Think it works best for the married couple in the group, and it gives us enough time to save and plan out details. We're going for 3-4 weeks.
    I screenshotted everything you shared with me and I've been meaning to DM you at some point to talk more about what we're doing vs. what you're doing :) Just to bounce ideas.

    This particular type was 5 cents. Cam originally had a more lucrative HIT (answering the questions instead of categorizing) that was 10 cents, then 9 cents, 8 cents, then suddenly 6 cents.

    My high school senior trip was to London and Paris and was pretty doable price wise because of the deal the school got us. I think it seems really intimidating to people, but if you do research and look for deals, it's for sure easier to do than it sounds. Hell, a friend of mine just took off to Iceland a few weeks ago spontaneously. I was super jealous.

    Oh, I would dig it. But I'm hoping to do grad school soon. I'm east coast; just moved closer to some prime schools for my career. I would love to live abroad all over for a bit if something came up for it. I just keep getting great opportunities here in the states.
    You said you're going pretty much indefinitely, right?

    Actually, Vancouver was my goal there for a bit after an animation conference I went to up there a few years back. Not SUPER abroad, but I fell in love with it. So if any Canadians need a wife, sign me up. :emoji_joy:

    yeah pretty much indefinitely. turking is easily going to handle expenses and my future income plans are trying out a variety of online business things so i can work on them from anywhere.
    although im not sure exactly how turking overseas works. need to look into that.

    anime north? I went to that one last year. canada definitely seems like a cool place. i enjoyed it the entire time i was there

    Pretty much the same, maybe. If I go somewhere, I'd have to plan for me and my impulsive excitement.

    Yeah, but then I must have shelter and sustenance.

    Nice! You should talk to @lefty about that cuz he just messed with that while visiting family.

    Nah, SIGGRAPH. It's for programmers and animators, etc, not an anime con.

    I used to go to Toronto and Ontario a ton when I lived in PA, hadn't been out west in Canada til that conference.
