I don’t have unlimited PTO, but it sure is nice to shut my laptop at 5 and be somewhere beautiful. I don’t have that luxury at home and it’s a huge perk with my current job.

When I’m on PTO, my laptop doesn’t go with me. I absolutely use all my PTO every year.

Sounds like you have the right idea! Are you permanently mobile?
As permanently mobile as a wife and young kid allow. We spent 3 months on the road 2 summers ago and had a great time!

I expect our radius to get smaller as our child gets older and goes to school, but we are very passionate about being outdoors as much as possible.

For example - I helped build a mutually accessible structure in a national forest, and my favorite work days are out there. We installed solar last summer, so it’s workable year round now.
