Burned-out millennials are quitting lucrative jobs

"It was definitely New York glamourous — the black dress, leather pants and high heels, and an hour putting on my makeup," says Solomon. "Anyone would think I had a really fun life, meeting cool people and celebrities."

But she yearned for something more and resented only having two weeks of vacation a year. So, last August, she quit her seemingly great job at a plum downtown p.r. firm.

"I wanted to travel more — I didn't want to have to ask for time off and grovel for extra days, you know?" says Solomon, now 25 and living in a rental house in Kauai, Hawaii, overlooking the beach.

Over the past 10 months, she's scaled volcanoes in Guatemala, soaked up the waterfalls of Bali, Indonesia, and basked on glorious beaches halfway around the world. She gets by doing freelance p.r. work on the road, so long as she can get decent Wi-Fi in paradise.
