Zarf on Tour

So I've got this new work situation where my work is pure telecommuting. I want to take advantage of this by spending as much of the next year as possible couch surfing the country. This means showing up at your house for a week or two and plugging in my laptop and working 30 hours per week (e.g. five 6 hours days or three 10 hour days) and spending the weekends and evenings hanging out. We might have to spread a normal vacation's weekend worth of stuff over the whole week or more that I'm there since I do have to get work done. I'm aware that that's a big imposition, I'll be using your dishes and bathroom and kitchen and crashing on your couch or guest bed. I'll do my share of chores and buy groceries and all that like a good guest. Some people are into this kind of guest and others aren't. That's totally cool. Let me know which you are.

The poll below the cut will help me plan my tour. I've set it so that only I can see the specific results of the poll.
