I’m starting to settle on the fact that ‘slowmad’ might be the way for me.

Basically, stay in a city for at LEAST 3 months but possibly up to 6.

My thinking is that I land, then spend the first week focused on finding an apartment.

They I buy a TV, desk, office chair, and a bunch of smaller things like towels.

It would be WAY cheaper than a hotel and a much nicer experience.

Then when you leave, you just sell the stuff or hire someone to do it for you.

Curious if anyone takes this approach and if they have any suggestions.

Right now I’m in BKK … and thinking of going down this route.

    I generally just use an Airbnb, always furnished. Usually I’ll only buy a monitor, when leaving I’ll just sell it or give it to a friend.

    One time I had a really nice apartment in Buenos Aires but the work space wasn’t great so I convinced the owner to go 50/50 with me on a new desk and chair.
