Go for breadth first across network, OS, application, mobile, web based security.

After a while assess which one you gravitate towards more often, the one that seems more interesting to you, go into depth on that one.

Just my $0.02.

I would also like to tell you to hang tough bro.

As someone who has met and worked with many other fleeing internally displaced persons (IDPs) from FATA and refugees from Afghanistan, it is really disheartening to hear each and every one of the stories of people from that region, and you might have an idea that there are much worse cases than yours, and listening to them doesn't get any easier each time.

As you very well know, most of the IDPs and refugees settle in Karachi, where they come by the thousands every day, and I used to work for a charity there to help them settle in, get some shelter and food in them, and in cases where they were in mortal danger(invariably interpreters or alleged "informants" against the taliban) we would try and get them out of the country.

For some reason, the US has a bad track record with the immigrants from that region, if I remember correctly, most of the applications we tried to push, were for european countries like sweden, UK. Initiatives like yours are very welcome in that regard, to raise awareness in the US for the plight of the people who helped them in war.

The problem with asylum in Europe is that these guys only know English, and sending them to Sweden etc gives them another big hurdle to cross apart from the obvious cultural ones that they will have to surmount to become good citizens in their new countries.
