This is where I am now.

There was an Environmental Studies major at my uni that had many interesting sounding classes, but I always thought it was a broad, kind of BS major. I majored in mechanical engineering, found myself in front of a computer 24/7, and quit not wanting to waste my 20s in an office. Do ES majors typically go on to grad school? Become land use planners? Forest rangers? Who hires them?

When you find a paying job that allows you to be outdoors 50% of the time AND includes world travel where you spend a decent amount of time in each place, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT IT IS! This has been my dream for probably the last 10 years or so. I am still trying to figure it out.
