It's now back to usual week after Free Cities conference: pilates, golf, tennis, catching up with people since it'll be our final week in Roatan, Honduras.

I so far have managed to do things that I have been wanting to do while here, except to do a scuba intro course (too much going on) and watercolor art (hard to focus, and need an actual desk).

Another issue has been how small the apartments have been, so without a dedicated private workspace for 2, it's actually a bit difficult to do anything. It's a typical issue regardless of where you stay in because a large enough desk space for 2 is challenging whether it is in a 5* hotel or Airbnb.

Luckily, I am on a "break" (except to volunteer as a mentor and as an exam writer) and I have come up with things to do, so the situation isn't THAT bad. But if I was working like my usual mode, with the need for private space to work, OK internet connection, occasional unannounced power issues, and lack of space/privacy for calls, the timezones, I would only be able to tolerate to stay a couple of weeks, or break up the stay in a hotel, or stay in a villa.
