Now a qualified pilot what next?

Hi all
I have recently completed my ppl training after two years on and off!
One thing I did not think about seriously was what to do next?
Do I buy into a share? Do I buy a microlite? If so which one?
I am not a millionaire so I do not want to buy a pa28 or similar as it will sit at an airfield encuring storage costs! Also the maintenance is excessive so a three axis microlite looks to be favoured so far, kitfox mk3 onwards, permit to fly, maybe a easy raider? Does anyone here been through similar?
I don't want large storage/hangarage bills either, hence looking at kitfox or cub with foldable wings I can then trailer around to and from local farm strip
I know flying ident a cheap sport/hobby I am just looking for good ideas really
If anyone has a kitfox or similar for sale please get in touch, also looking for local clubs/farm strip users near to bath where I can meet up with like minded enthusiasts/pilots for advice over a cuppa maybe :-)
Many thanks for your time
Kind regards, Jason
