I work online, these days mostly doing freelance web design and some coaching (business and personal development).

It's like being English, only way better :-P

I have a wife and four kids back home. I miss them occasionally.

I'm not married. I'll likely commit to a long-term relationship at some point, but it's not a priority for me right now.

I get laid almost as often as I like ;-)

I don't plan to resume a regular life :-)

My long-term ideal would be to have a home base in two or three different countries around the world, and I'd spend a few months in each every year or two, between trips to destinations new.

Cargo ship travel is easy as long as you have money. You google around from "cargo ship cruises", contact some agents and ask them what's available. I have some agents listed here: http://www.ndoherty.com/cargo-ship-2/

But it's not cheap. Most cargo ship trips are going to cost you at least €100 a day. My 26 days across the Pacific cost me $4.5k (including banking and exchange fees).

As for the most difficult leg of my journey: Getting out of India. That's surprisingly hard to do without flying. I spent $1200 booking a cargo ship to take me from Sri Lanka to Malaysia, only to discover that there's no easy way to get from India to Sri Lanka without flying. I couldn't make the crossing in time and lost that $1200.

In the end I managed to get a free cruise from India to Thailand, via the power of social media :-) More on that here if you're interested: http://www.ndoherty.com/costa-cruises/
