For work I do a lot of traveling to all kinds of different cities… I noticed that I had quite a few shoppers right in the same town that I needed to meet with. Not only did I need to wine & dine shoppers, I had to sell products, learn the area & nab the sale. It was doable to say that for one client, it would take at least a week of work! Also, I had other shoppers in the area, making it a very lengthy quest. Rather than jump on a plane multiple times in a week, I made the choice to just stay in the city. I found a week to week rental that was fully furnished… Work was willing to pay for quite a bit of the weekly rental also. I used that money & matched it with my own. I ended up in a rather high end & swanky short term rental. I was in a classy building right in the main city. I was within walking distance of all our shoppers. I could get drunk at the bars & stumble back to the place with no complications. The diners were right near me & there was a Dunkin Donuts Latte shop that I could see from my window. I ended up only needing several weeks in the rental. It was several glorious weeks to behold. I was able to live the high life while working & getting commission. I was able to live a completely weird lifestyle thanks to the week to week lease. I now have no troubles traveling & staying in a location for work. It can be honestly exciting getting to know the area & meet new people.
