Sounds interesting but myself, I don't travel much at all. I
averaged about 8k miles per year on my automobile when I was
married. The wife could double and triple that on her car. :-) 

When work was plentiful I tried to find jobs within no more
than 20 minutes one way from my home (or less). I don't like
long drives when I'm tired (coming home). This was very doable
for many decades of my life until recently.
