It's been one month since I gave up my day job to work on mobile apps full time and take a one year round the world trip with my wife. Here is a slightly irreverent one year retrospective. Comments and questions are welcome.

Great post! Its amazing how much influence social pressure has on our productivity, thats the hardest thing to replicate when flying solo.

absolutely. I was shocked at how much my productivity went down when I was at home with the dog and the TV.

Good post. I quit recently as well - I deal with productivity in two ways: when I get stuck or bored of one area I work on another, and second I dont fight bad days but enjoy them and compensate on good days.

From your itinerary, it seems travel starts in a few months? How are you planning to work on the road?

planning to use airbnb to find places with good internet. Switch off work days and sightseeing days. That's the plan anyhow.
