If I asked those of you that know me well what words you would use to describe me, I'm sure one of them would not be "adventurous".
Actually, I'd really rather not know the words you all would use to describe me.
Some of you have passions like volleyball, or riding your bike in riverside park, or restoring old clock towers. Maybe even dining out, or retinas. Me? I'd be perfectly content sitting on the couch watching an entire season of Alias while consuming a "Family Size" bag of dark russet potato chips. In fact, I'd say that's my preferred activity.
Even though my natural state is one of idleness, somehow, I've ended up taking a non-traditional route up to now. Whereas most of my friends have done some variation of school-job-school-career, or school-school-career, often living near home or near their alma mater, somehow I've ended up in three U.S. cities and now one half-way around the world.
Sometimes I wish I had done something more traditional. I wonder how my life would have turned out.

I think you would've been bored/disenchated/miserable and in a state where you constantly contemplated "What if ... ?".
You took some chances to figure your life out. Nothing wrong with doing that. If anything, I think it makes you a better person for it.
