If you make it as a successful DJ you'll find yourself in huge demand from clubs and trendy bars around the country - become even bigger and before long you'll be jet-setting around the world on months' long tours, spinning tunes in Australia one minute before touching down in Iceland a couple of days later. It sounds like a perfect life, but before long it becomes apparent that, far from being an opportunity to take in some sights and experience the world, it's one long journey between airports, hotel rooms and DJ booths. Whether you find yourself going for a few drinks with the promoter before the gig, or being shuffled off to an after party in the early hours of the morning, fitting time to relax into your schedule is a near-impossible task. Still, with the advent of the internet it's possible to DJ around the world from your home via a podcast, but it's just not the same as actually being in the same room as the people who are dancing to your music. Where's the fun in that?
