Same. As a teenager I wanted to move to Maine when I turned 18 and just sort of gradually weasel my way into being a lighthouse keeper, (because that totally would have worked) but my dreams were crushed after actually researching it one night. And then I actually considered becoming a carnie (like elph said) as a sad alternative, I guess..? I know full well it would be miserable and not romantic or quaint at all, but the small idiot goblin in my brain still thinks it's a good idea for whatever reason.
