Don't have a homebase. Spend your weekends traveling. Get either a storage unit, or move any excess stuff you have over to your parents, use their address as a mailing address, and then each weekend go wherever the heck you want.

Visit friends in LA one weekend, ski in Vail or Park City another. Head down to Miami or Cancun if it gets too cold.

If you're going to be flying "home" every week anyway, it's not that much additional travel. Just gotta figure out a way to do the laundry! Plus you'll save a bunch of money!
I don't hate this idea. You can use Vail as your "base" since it's free and do whatever you want on the weekends. 2 weekend nights hotel (particularly when you include the breakfast via status ) is no more than monthly rent. Do LA 2-3 weekends per month and mix it up once or twice.
