Hello,

I'm currently living in Florida, but I'm planning to stay at my aunt place in New York for a couple of weeks this summer. Also, I'm no longer living in the apartment where I was living and will be looking for one while staying there. I'm applying for jobs these days, and I'm wondering if I can list my aunt's address as my physical address even though I haven't moved there yet.

Is there a role of thumb of how to list your physical address on a resume while you're moving/traveling during the summer?

I'd say the general rule is to give an address you can actually be contacted at.

I'd go ahead and list your aunt's address, since that's probably the best option for reaching you by mail.
 
This sounds wise. Thanks TMFKAN64 for help!
