It’s across from the US Embassy, so has been a watering hole for ex-pats, State Department employees, and people who merely list their official employer as the State Department. Presidents from […]

What I’ve Learned From Living In Hotels

I've been living out of hotels for almost a year now, and have mixed emotions about the entire experience. I'm working on a more in-depth post, but it's tough to distill such a big life change into something readable. So that's a work in progress.

I get messages every day asking about the laundry situation, in particular, so hopefully this is helpful for some of you!
