1st Business Trip of the Year Complete!

My first business trip of the year is complete! I didn't have to travel too far this time around. It was only about an hour drive (1.5-2 hours in traffic) away from where I live. I am normally the first in and last out during these types of business trips. Even if the event is only an hour or so away, we still need to stay on site to address any issues that pop up.  You never know how traffic will be or how quick a need has to be filled.

The hotel I stayed in this time around was a Residence Inn. I don't think I've ever stayed at one of these before. I quite liked it! They had a kitchenette complete with dish washer, microwave, refrigerator, and small stove top. It was a studio setup so the sitting area, desk, eating, kitchen, and sleeping area were combined. The bathroom area had the toilet and tub in its own room and the sink and mirror were located in the main area.

If you'd like me to continue this trend of hotel 'tours' on my travels, let me know!

Below is a video I took of my hotel room:

On the Road Again...

This coming week I start traveling for work again. The first trip of the year only takes me about an hour's drive from where I live. I feel this trip eases me into what could be a very busy year in terms of traveling for both personal and business reasons. 

I am often asked the following:

Question:  Do you enjoy the travel that comes with your job?

Answer: I do. 

I have gotten used to being on the road, renting cars, flying, managing per diem, and sleeping in hotels. Some people love the on-the-go lifestyle, although, I've talked to some fellow business travelers that are ready to settle and stop traveling so much. At this point in my life, I don't have much screaming for my attention where I live. If I'm gone for two weeks, it's not a big deal.  

Look for some videos of hotels and venues I travel to, in the near future. 

I think I would find it hard to take a job where I didn't travel...having been in this job for almost two years...

What's your job like? Do you travel or sit at a desk day in and day out? Do you get to interact with coworkers and customers?
