    And I bet you got your house for a great price !!! My husband and I just moved to North Carolina (Camp Lejeune actually!) and bought a massive house here and we are from Florida ! The price for the size house and yard we got here would have been unobtainable in Florida . But I LOVE your videos ! Been binge watching for a few days now ❤️

      Florida is getting unaffordable in places, and their property taxes are really high too,

      yaimavol We pay higher property taxes because we do not have state income taxes like many other states do.

    Railroad people also use the crashpad lifestyle as they usually have two bases, like Albuquerque/Amarillo. They ping pong between the two cities, so they have a home at one end and crash at the other.

    Agreed indeed. Living in the crash pads is fun if you and the people sharing it with you get along well. The best part of crash pads is it allows you to save and have unique experiences. People with different mindsets come along and you can study the human behavior. While having people from different airlines it can also provide an opportunity to excel in your career to as opportunities are more readily available. Looking for Temporary Duty Housing you can go for Freedom TDY Crashpads, especially if you are from military or the airline crew.

    I agree with you. I had a crash pad when I worked for two different Airlines. The first Airline I worked for there was 3 (that included myself) and we did not get along the other two were FAs with other Airlines and the second Airline I worked for there was a total of four which included myself we got along better we were from the same class. We really didn’t need a crash pad with the 2nd Airline I worked for we never sat reserve from day one and the majority of the lines were commutable

    I got my first set of furniture on Craigslist. Once the owner knew I was bringing insured movers in, they started throwing in things so low in price I just took everything. It was a coffee table, a couch, dining room set with curio, bedroom set, waterfall fountain, black leather couch, plates, glassware and a huge dresser with mirror in bedroom set! I would have never taken the couch but her place was immaculate and she had a vase of glass flowers on the dining room table which made me realize this was a meticulous person!

    Show the house before and after furniture. Architecturally, showing the house first will give us a better sense of the space. Aesthetically, the furniture will adjourn it and give us a sense of your style as it relates to the architecture

    I lived and worked at a camp/conference center in what was basically a very sketchy crash pad. It did not even have a kitchen. This building was already condemned but they decided to shove all the female staff in it, then a tree fell on it... they still had us live there, with cracked walls and a tilted foundation.

    I know every airline is different, but if you could guess how often do you think the opportunity to transfer bases comes up? Just in your experience.

    So if you have to stay in a crash pad for a few months, what do you do with all your stuff? Do you just have a tub of personal belongings, or do you put it in storage elsewhere?
    Also can you get mail sent to the crash pad, or do you have to have it forwarded to a family member, and use that as your actual living adress?

      You will have to apply for a K1 Visa and if approved you have to be married in 90 day's from the day they enter the US. There is a lot of info online now ever since that TLC TV show "90 day fiance" came on TV lol
