Long distance commuting

Looks like I might have to start considering a serious comute - a weekly comute to zurich, amsterdam, or similar.

I just finished a long contract. Left me too skilled for the average but with my banking experience too rusty to use, and the banks are the only people round here willing to pay for the kind of project that needs people like me. More and more it's looking like the only way to go is widen the search into other countries. I tell myself that it's just a week's daily commuting rolled into one trip but I've got some concerns.

Any one tried this? What was it like? What did it do to your training? More tiring than a daily commute?

I havn't had that type of commute, but I have traveled a bit, and i think you need to sit down(maybe with your teacher) and write down a training schedule for when you are away. thats what I did. for example:

Monday: qigong, practice form sets
wed: Calasthenics, qigong, streching
friday: time to break down froms, think about technique,

and so on. Obviously, what your actual workouts consist of generally are individual for you. But if you scheduale it, and have a plan, I find it easier to get the work in.

thats my 2 cents.
