Pisu, no one can tell you which one is suitable for you. YOU have to make that decision. If you are unable to make such a decision, then full time work is probably better for you since it will have structure. Freelance is great because you get to decide when you work and what jobs you do. However, jobs are not guaranteed and it can be hard to make a name for yourself. Full time is great because you have consistent employment. You may end up doing less challenging or fun things, but you aren't worried about your next paycheck.
