I'm Kevin Luten, and I write Field Office, a guide to working remotely from home swaps, ranger cabins and other places away from home. What is the most useful thing you can send me? A question: about hosting on Kindred (the members-only home-swap club I belong to), about renting a ranger cabin from the US Forest Service, or about keeping a home computer reachable while you travel. Good ones tend to become guides.
If you would like a short note when a new guide or stay write-up goes up, tick the box. That is all it does.
What's worth asking
- Kindred from the homeowner's side: hosting, guests, credits and fees. Start with home swapping as a homeowner.
- Ranger cabins and other places swaps don't reach. See beyond home swaps.
- The setup: reaching your home computer, power and connectivity. See the remote-work setup.
