Realistically, can I hook up whilst traveling?

I'm at an MBB and 5 months in, still on my first project. This thing is draining my brain. I have no energy left at all. My weekend is ruined for a 12 hours flight to be at the client's feet on time. It's a lot of pressure honestly. I now have lots of free time during late Wednesdays, which I could extend by skipping team dinner bs. I could really use some tinder 🤧 especially that I've been paying for gold for months without use. I've had girls invite me but going out and coming back to the hotel very late won't work.

I could make another booking for a night at the hotel for the night, but is that even allowed?

hey, @998375. i need some advice. are you available for a coffee chat this week in nyc? 

 

Yeah you can usually extend the hotel on your own dollar

Why not go out and come back late? Unless you're out until 4am why would anyone care

You absolutely can. Would I suggest it? No. Separate church (work) and state (social)

I used to swipe using premium so I could change locations to cities I knew I'd be in the next week and set stuff up that way, but my meetings and your meetings sound a little less intense. Usually, my meetings last an hour or two with lunch or dinner and then I'd fly back same day or the morning after.

If it's a large city with a good scene and if I was able to, I combined my trips with stays at hostels and met people that way. A lot of the people who work at hostels are staying there, so make friends with the staff, works especially great if the hostel has a bar. Once you are friends with a staff member you've always got someone to go out with and hostel people in general are a great time.
