Myself.
Been a freelance dev for years, now going on "sabbatical" (love that word) very shortly.
Planning to do a lot of learning, self-improvement, and projects. Tech-related and not. Preparing for the next volume (not chapter) of life. Refactoring, if you like, among other things.
I'm excited.

I posted about this on last month's thread, and mentioned in a descendant comment that I was going to PyCon US in May. Someone well-meaning asked if tech conferences are in tune with working on myself. I just got back from PyCon. Yes! It was an incredible experience. Not for learning technical things from talks – the talks are mostly online already – but for the social and community aspects.

Out of interest, how are you approaching this? Are you trying to "refactor" in specific areas, or is it somewhat more ad-lib? Do you have something in mind for the next "volume"?
