Given a choice

Given a choice between two years at Ryerson at the expense of tuition+living expenses, or going to live somewhere like Simcoe or Sioux Lookout to work at a small local paper, and making some profit, what will I choose? Note that the later listed salary as 23-25K -- small, but not so small for a small town where living is probably cheap. Of course, at Ryerson expenses would be much higher but I'd be happier, and could teach skating to help cover living expenses (so not a total loss of money).

Going to a small town could be a great experience... Simcoe isn't so far, but then, it's bound to be less interesting than Sioux Lookout, which would be bloody cold, but would have things like dog sleds and shit. Now that's a Canadian experience... On the other hand, I suspect going somewhere like Sioux Lookout would basically be equivalent to choosing to be celibate for the duration of my stay. AND to be without close friends. Would I be able to get broadband there? Probably not. Maybe then... Man. Talk about isolation. Dunno about that.
