Mobile lifestyle

MOBILE LIFESTYLE
Lately I have been doing some business and personal traveling. It takes time to get from A to B, but when you calculate all the preparations you need to do for setting travel plans... well it takes time. Looks like mobile lifestyle is a huge sink for resources, if you do it extensively - yesterday NYC, today London and Moscow tomorrow. Obviously it doesn't work like that, one has to have time to write and that's difficult to do while looking for GATE 48.

MOBILISH LIFESTYLE
Stupid term but more accurate. Half a year here another over there, this has better chances of succeeding as stable and continuous lifestyle. You avoid wasting time on constant search of an internet access, accommodation, like-minded people, stories to write about... stay somewhere a tad longer and you get better grasp of everything local, but still retain that outsider's fresh point of view. You have time to benefit from networking and those contacts help you even further down the road as you move somewhere else. If we merely visit a place, we tend to sightsee instead of see with insight.
