Songman, If you're concerned about your family you just need to remember to leave work at work. There is a lot of drama in this industry and it can change you mentally if you let it. AIDS (aviation induced divorce syndrome) doesn't just happen because you're gone a lot. This is a stressful job with a lot of unknowns. Where ever you choose to go make sure you leave work at the door and make all your home time about family. That would be my advice. Enjoy the 121 world, but it will do all it can to mess with you.
