I'm home again. No more business trips until after New Year's.

I'm planning to.

Of course, after Christmas it looks like it is going to be Confusion - Mexico - Kokomo - home. Then, maybe, a couple week in New Mexico during February. But nothing is set in stone, yet.

Excellent! Plenty of snow to enjoy...

How high-stress are your business trips generally? Do you get time to do anything other than work? Are you "encouraged" to "network" with the clients outside the actual training time?

Most of the negotiations were happening by email while I was away, and it didn't get confirmed until a few days ago.

My business trips are generally pretty low stress -- my evenings are my time, not company time. I work an 8-hour day, doing the training, then I'm done. I rarely spend evening time with any of the customers, unless they happen to be rock-climbers, then I will do so, but because of the shared interest. The people I'm training are, generally, the techies and not the networking types anyway.

That's good... I'm an extravert, but even so, I'd go insane if I had the kind of business travel schedule some of the folks I know do.
