airbnb hopping to visit kids in different cities
After selling my house during the crazy market, I moved into a small apartment in Texas, thinking it would be easier to visit my three grown kids. Now, one’s in Colorado, two are in Texas, and soon one will be in Canada. I’m single, nearly retired, and honestly, I don’t have much tying me down anymore. Downsizing was tough, but now I’m wondering if I should just give up the apartment and bounce around, staying in Airbnbs for a month at a time near each of my kids.
The idea sounds freeing—no yard work, no long-term lease, just time with my kids and grandkids. But then I start thinking about the hassle of packing up every month, dealing with different landlords, and not really having a place to call my own. I worry about feeling like a guest everywhere, or what if I get tired of living out of a suitcase?
I’ve heard some people do this, but is it really as easy as it sounds? Are there tricks to making it feel more like home, or does it just get exhausting? I want to be close to my family, but I also want a little stability. It feels like a trade-off between freedom and comfort, and I can’t decide which one matters more at this stage of life. Anyone else juggling this kind of situation?
