• Answer:

  No, you aren't likely to be able to travel all the time with a computer science career - or most other careers either. Very few if any employers will let you just sit on a beach somewhere and work remotely. Even jobs where you work remotely usually have fairly frequent face-to-face meetings. Welcome to the world. That's why they call it "work" - it you got to set the rules, and do what sounded like fun to you, they'd call it play. And nobody would probably pay you for it. But if you get a good enough job, you'll have the money to travel on your vacation time. There are lots of jobs in the computer field that don't involve spending most of your day in a cubicle or office, but they do generally require that you be in a certain place.
