I looked into traveling within the US as a DN, but decided against it because of the costs. Unless I wanted to be in rural America, it was frequently 2K to 3K a month to rent a standard run of the mill 1-2 bed AirBnB. As someone who has traveled internationally before, these costs are easily 2x-4x than renting the same place in another country. This doesn't even account for things like gas and dining out, which again, will be multiples of what would be spent in another part of the world.

If I do decide to travel in the US, it will be van life style. Temporary housing has just gotten way more expensive and that's no surprises; houses cost more and those costs are reflected in the bill.
