For the last year and a half, Ben Schlappig has been essentially homeless. The 25-year-old American has no fixed address, nor the keys to his own front door. Why bother paying rent, he figured, when a bed was only ever a first class ticket away?

Schlappig is a "Hobbyist," as those in the game call it -- a professional traveler with an almost obsessive attention to fine print, who uses a mixture of frequent flyer miles and credit card reward points, to zoom around the globe for a fraction of the cost.
