    What do you do for self-employment? I’ve always thought that being self employed would be awesome.

      Translation; mostly between Portuguese, Italian, English.

      Self-employment is a bit of a mixed blessing. It requires some discipline handling time and money, as well as flexibility - dealing with the fact that some months you’ll get barely any income, and in others you’ll feel overworked as fuck. You won’t deal with a shitty boss, but with a plethora of shitty clients (and some really great ones).
