Alternatively, if you don't want to go back and study for ages, look up Wind Turbine Technician jobs - many offer on-the-job training/apprenticeships and it definitely gets you out of your chair and around some fantastic locations.

As for age, I didn't even really start my career until mid-20s, and changed completely mid-30s. |
