Thank you for this contribution. I would love not to commute, but this rang true to me. Having my family with me in a new city would never feel like home so I would feel perpetually at work. Commuting sounds rough, but I will focus on making it my decompress time so when I get home and I can truly be home and 100% present for the family.
