Does anyone live outside a tech hub but travel to it frequently (~one week a month)? How does that compare to living in a hub full time, in terms of work productivity, networking, opportunities, etc?

I live in Vancouver which isn’t really a tech hub (though some tech/crypto people are here!), usually aim for a weeklong trip every 3-4 months. Lived in SF for one year, in a house with GOOG/YC people, don’t think it was much more productive tbh.

Do you miss the serendipity of being in person? Hearing about events, meeting random people that turn out to be awesome

Not really tbh 😅 There are some crypto people here, and I’ll sometimes meet up IRL. Might also be a function of my day job, which gets me to chat with a pretty wide range of people!
