Workation - nice or stupid?
(imagevars.gulfnews.com)
I have recently received several ads on LinkedIn regarding workation. I am not sure if I think it sounds stupid or not.
I get the appeal of going south (I am from Denmark, we just had the most rainy summer ever recorded) and enjoy the weather, but at the same time it sounds like the perfect way to not enjoy your time abroad.
I work in a position where I could easily ask to work remote for a week or two, thus the targeting ad is correct that I am in the segment.
Any thoughts, experience or opinion on this?
This really depends on the type of work you do, the deadlines, how far you go (timezone differences), how much you feel like missing out if you don't go out to explore.
If all you want is get away from the rain, then it might suit you. Now if you also want to explore and relax, it might get a bit more complicated
