How to escape
It made me
appreciative 
"Its a lifelong mission"
How I did it: Escape, for me, has become a state of mind. Its nearly impossible to escape all of one's responsibilities. I can't physically get away every time I need to so I allow myself the opportunity to have "me" time every single day. It may be an hour, it may only be 10 minutes, but I take that time every day.
I would love to get away from it all for a while, but reality doesn't allow it. "Me" time helps.
Lessons & tips: Don't feel guilty about taking time for yourself. Everyone deserves happiness. If escaping is what it takes, do it.
People doing this are also doing these things:

I'm trapped
1 month ago
I can’t seem to grow. My life is upside down. Everytime I try to correct it, the people around me freak out. I love being a mom, but I never wanted to be the only parent she has. I’m not a single parent, I’m a double parent. Death is different than divorce. Every move I make is scrutinized. I don’t care what people think of me, but I do care what my daughter thinks. I can’t walk out the door without her thinking I may never return, just like her dad.
I’m trying to find my place, but I’m too busy helping her feel secure in hers.
I feel selfish.

I’m very good at escaping actually. Now I just need to find myself…
How to afford this
4 months ago
I’ve been trying to figure out how I can afford to do this. If I can find a job that pays a sign-on or relocation bonus, then I’ll be set. Otherwise, it is down to paying off debts and saving up money. I hope that I’m able to find a way to do this in 10 months, when my lease is up.

Now I've got a rough idea

I’m going to employ a more specific goal and list this as ‘done’ as plans will, without doubt, be put into motion pretty soon.

You've got mail.

I’ve had no mail for ages but, after ordering and then forgetting about, what lands on the kitchen table on the very same day?
NONSTOP’s snowboard instructor training brochure and Camp America’s super shiny brochure!
Words can’t express how big the grin on my face was, flicking through those bad boys this afternoon. This prompted me immediately to go to the library where I took out ‘The Gap Year Book’ by Lonely Planet (along with a book about yoga/meditation/stretching/tai chi and snowboarding). I have itchy feet to the maxxx!

Cabin fever.
9 months ago
I just want to get out of England. I hate being 18 and broke. As much as I whine that the idea of being 20 next year is horrifying, I still feel too young to do most of the stuff I want. I know I’m not a kid anymore, but I don’t feel like an adult either. I think this year will have a lot to do with me gaining my independence. Also, I have all these grand plans for travelling and backpacking, but I’m worried that being a woman won’t particularly work in my favour. Incidents in the past have made me (irrationally?) wary, so how am I suppose to cope on another contient when I’m constantly looking over my shoulder in my home town?!
Think of the freedom and peace of mind if I were a 200lb, 6’4’’ powerhouse of a man…

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Mark Twain
