If you follow the [Discourse Developer Install Guide (Vagrant)](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/VAGRANT.md), you will always need to `cd /vagrant` after `vagrant ssh`.

Therefore I added this command to the `~/.profile` within the Vagrant VM, so that I never have to do that anymore:

```
$ vagrant ssh
$ echo "cd /vagrant" >> ~/.profile

```

I was wondering: Could we add this to the VM by default? Or add this hint to the guide?
