Travel tips
But wait… what is workcation? 🤔
The word "workcation" is a combination of "work" and "vacation" and it was first coined in the early 2010s as remote work became more popular. The concept is simple: why settle for just one or the other when you can have both? The idea of combining work and leisure caught on quickly, especially among travelers and digitalnomads who wanted to escape their daily routines and still be productive.
🌍 The idea is to escape the monotony of daily life, immerse yourself in a new environment, and still get work done!
Top reasons why you should consider a workcation 🎯
It can be tailored to your needs: You can do it anywhere and for any length of time, whether it's a quick getaway or a longer escape. You can work from a hotel, from a friend’s house, your hometown, or even a coworking space! You can enjoy the sights and sounds of a new city 🌃, appreciate the tranquility of a quiet beach 🏖️ or wake up to the sights of your favorite mountain view 🏞️ while still getting your work done.
It’s easy: All you need is a good internet connection and your laptop or tablet!
It boosts your productivity: Studies have shown that changing your environment can improve creativity and productivity 💡. For some, it's a chance to escape the distractions and disruptions of a busy office.
It’s family-friendly: Workcations are not just for solo travelers, they are also a great option for families! 🤝 You can spend quality time with your family while still being able to work and earn an income. The best part? Instead of just lounging around at home, your children can participate in active and adventurous activities, like hiking, surfing, or even taking a cooking class together!
Shake things up this year and make the most of your time off, consider a workcation! 🚀
