sojourning
Residing for now
Sojourning is staying somewhere temporarily, with the sense of passing through rather than settling.
The word carries a slightly literary or old-fashioned tone, suggesting travel with purpose or reflection: After months of sojourning in Europe, she returned home changed.
A sojourner is someone who stays briefly in a place before moving on.
