I was hoping that AirBnB would do something like that. Great initiative! I'll add this to my list https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job

Hey, great list! I want to start working remotely soon and will make sure to go through most of the links you curated there. Thanks!

Have you considered having some storage in the house that automatically follows you around the world as you move from place to place ? i.e. your belongings just turn up at the house you are currently staying in without you having to deal with shipping?

Edit: to clarify/simplify

The concept is really nice! BUT WHY OH WHY THE SCROLL HIJACKING?

Agreed. I spent too long staring dumbly at the page, finding nothing to click on, wondering how to get more information.

I hate this trend towards elimination of affordances.

cool concept, but not sure Mexico City is a good location. I've heard it can be very dangerous, especially in the evenings.

Indeed. Guadalajara (at least from what I've gathered chatting with folks local to that area) is much more tech-savvy (quite a few tech firms - big and small - have setups there), is home to an indie film festival (among other things), and is the supposed birthplace of mariachi music. If I were to give up my stationary life and become a nomad, I'd much rather have my transient basecamp in Guadalajara than Mexico City, to be honest.

That would be a great idea!

That's very high up the list, bulk shipping of standardized boxes is the favorite solution atm, but didn't do in-depth cost comparisons etc.

Just was stuck for a few days in the Alps with the overhead bin luggage for Bali on the way back to SF, so i feel your pain.

How would you prefer to have it handled?
