Might be a little late to this trend, but has anyone tried living someplace new for a month/few months while not tied to a location for work? I know a few who've tried it during the early stages of the pandemic and many ended up staying out there long-term. One even met a girl (who was doing the same thing) within their first month and now they're engaged.
Could use a change of scenery so I'm thinking of doing this and treating it like a trial run for a potential new place to live. Worst case, it's a long vacation (granted I'll be doing virtual work). Not entirely sure how long duration-wise I'd do it for, but aiming for at least a month to get close to the full experience. Is that enough time to form an accurate impression? Would it be better to try more places for shorter amounts of time or one place for a longer amount of time?
