I already did that anon. Hiked the pct in 2016 and then traveled throughout 2017 and 2018. It's just escapism mixed with hedonistic partying at hostels. I did learn a lot about myself though.

In your opinion, how difficult is law school?

That's a bad idea. Aristotle is EXTREMELY dense. Important points are being made on every page. Start with Plato's Euthyphro

Doesn't have to be hedonistic partying at hostels. Become a travel writer.
