Hello OP, good on you, it's the best way to get out of a rut. Don't forget to keep in contact with your family though. Also consider taking a train or car to your new location, I know fuel prices are higher than they use to be but come on...
I did much the same thing a while ago, I ended up in Germany, much happier now. If I was you, I would head off to one of the rural American states but then again i am a botanist :D Try wwoofing, Willing to work on organic farms. You get free room and board in exchange for work, if you work full time hours you usually get a... I don't know the English word for it but money each week, not too much but useful.
Anyway I mention this because your picture suggests you want to get back to nature a bit at least and it will give you plenty of time to think over your options. Plus valuable life experience and looks great on a CV whatever you decide to do! Also I know people in america who do tree planting for logging companys. No experience required, not great pay but its cheap to life so you can save lots of money.
What have you been trained in? Have you done an academic subject or apprentiship?
Best of luck.
