If you’re a visiting professor, you probably love that your job takes you to new locales. You get to experience a new city without having to find other work. It really is a dream come true. But as with every dream you get, there are a few snags. And one of the biggest ones is finding housing. It’s tough to rent when you know you’ll only be in the same place for a few months. And hotel costs can add up fast. So your best bet is temporary housing. You can live in a cozy apartment for as long as you like without having to find a relaxed landlord or deal with hotel staff coming into your room regularly. But that list doesn’t stop there. Read on to discover why temporary housing is perfect for travelling professors!
Discover just why temporary housing might be the perfect fit for your next visiting professorship.
Temporary Housing is Homey
When you know you’ll be holed up in a hotel for months on end, the setting can get, well, bland. Temporary housing is that perfect blend of chic and cozy. Plus, you’ll be there for a while so you can decorate with pictures and flowers if you like. Many PC Housing properties are also pet friendly so you can travel with your furry friend in tow.
Enjoy Top Amenities
If your property includes a swimming pool, spas, fitness and business centers, you can use them at your convenience. PC Housing properties typically feature a washer and dryer inside each apartment. No more hauling your stuff across town to wash it.
Cook When You Have Time
Temporary housing usually includes a full kitchen—not something you’ll find at your average hotel. What’s more is that you’ll find kitchen and dining room accessories too. No need to shell out for cooking tools, knifes, glasses, measuring cups and anything else you might need to whip up that next great meal. Plus, you’ll save money when you cook your own meals. This will especially come in handy when you’re new to the area and aren’t sure what restaurants to visit just yet.
Really Make Your Home Your Own
Since you’ll be there for a while, feel free to make the place feel like home. Rearrange furniture. Buy flowers. Purchase photos that you don’t have to nail to the wall. Add little touches like candles, diffusers and other homey items to add personal touches to your pad.
Preserve Your Privacy
Unlike at a hotel when you know housekeeping staff will be in your room every day, temporary housing includes option weekly cleaning. If you prefer to have housekeeping, that’s an option too. Either way, know that you’ll have more privacy at a temporary housing location.
