I live and work in 2 different cities. Commuting over 300 miles is great for my social life, productivity, and career.

• I never thought I'd live and work in two different cities, but the setup is great for my lifestyle.
• By working hours away in San Jose, I can set strong work-life boundaries and see Bay Area friends.
• Meanwhile, my kids get to enjoy their lives in Los Angeles near our extended family.

Working in a city over 300 miles from where I live is one of those life decisions I never considered possible until I did it.

Now, I can't imagine any other configuration.
