I am kucky enough to travel around Syd and up to Newcastle or down to Wollongong for work.
Sometimes it is an inspection others to manage an installation crew or to check a problem.
Gives me plenty of time to see WL either during a job or after if it wraps up early.

Previous job was looking after IT for major companies which again involved a lot of metro and regional travel.
I could pretty much just tell colleagues I was going to XX location and go punting instead.
