A week ago, I came home from a 2-week trip where I visited several east coast friends, and I realized I want to spend a lot more time with them. But I want to spend significant time here too.

So, I've started planning out how I can be away for half the year living with different loved ones. It'll take time to set up, but it seems doable, and I've decided to do it.

I couldn't find a name for this. "snowbird" is the closest but I'm going somewhere cold in winter.
