I can't imagine essentially "moving" to a new place 3 times a year. I have pets and would need to take at least 3-4 days off to pack and move everything, so unless this dude owns 3 properties, it seems like a massive time expenditure to do this. Not to mention being incredibly stressful (which would make me less productive). Unless they are a digital nomad with a laptop and a pair of flip-flops. I make no assumptions about their actual work day. Maybe they are incredibly productive.

What? > I can't imagine essentially "moving" to a new place 3 times a year. You're not moving. You don't need to pack your microwave, sofa and stamp collection and organise 3 trucks to move all your stuff. You pack 1 or 2 suitcases with the things you need for the climate for 4 months (which goes by faster than you think). > I have pets Ok, others don't so I don't see how that's relevant > would need to take at least 3-4 days off to pack and move everything As I said, it's only 1-2 suitcases. You can pack them in a couple hours. If you need an entire day then you do it on a Saturday. Not sure why packing requires extra time off work. You make everything sound so stressful. Do you tend to stress about many normal life things? > so unless this dude owns 3 properties Perhaps they do, but truthfully you don't need to own a place to spend somewhere 4 months. I've been to places for a few months and most rentals have fully fitted kitchens and basic things such as hair dryers, etc. > Not to mention being incredibly stressful (which would make me less productive). Being stressed over nothing sounds like a subjective you problem, not a general problem. People also pack suitcases to go on holiday and going somewhere nice is for most people associated with happy hormones and not stress hormones. > I make no assumptions about their actual work day. Maybe they are incredibly productive. Exactly, they are incredibly productive because nothing was said that would even remotely suggest the opposite.
