It's very possible to become isolated working remotely even in a familiar city, especially for introverted people. It's far easier to say "hey let's grab drinks after work" when I'd need to commute home from the office vs. when I'm already at home, with Netflix and Seamless mere inches away... and this becomes a very slippery slope. A week can go by with limited human interaction. And that's rarely a good thing.
