Or even worse and get involved in the arty scene.

6 months on 6 months of sounds good, but from my experience doesn't end up working that way. One contract leads to another, to another. Money is good but lucky to get 6 weeks off a year. Some crews working in various established petro/gas sites do 2 weeks on 2 weeks off and the company fly you to nearest major city to your residence.

Metro fire brigade and ambulance do 4 days on and 4 off with 10 weeks paid annual leave. Very competitive to get in, several thousand apply each year for a few jobs that come up.
