Leaving good job to ski bum

I’m (23M) from Western Canada and grew up skiing in the Rockies and miss it a ton.

I moved to Ontario for university, graduated last year, and have been working a well-paying job in my field ever since, and while I’m grateful and lucky to be where I am now, I think I got into my role too quickly. I’ve always had this dream of going back home/moving to a ski town out west after my undergrad and just spend a year or two as a ski bum. Now I’m having this “what if?” feeling creeping in and I don’t want to wake up at an older age wishing I’d just gone for it when I had the chance. I still ski around east and get back out west around Christmas and Easter, but it’s just not the same as it was as a kid and in my teens. Not to mention the friends I usually went skiing in uni with moved away upon graduating.

Has anyone here left a solid job to just ski and/or something adjacent like moving away to do a working holiday? What was it actually like financial or experience-wise? Did you regret it at all?
