Why Workations are All the Rave

Workations – temporary working and living in a location different from a permanent residence – are gaining popularity. Most workationers agree that such a change positively impacts their productivity, creativity, satisfaction of work and helps them cope with burnout.

Mixing business with pleasure seems to be a great solution, particularly amid today's turbulent, pandemic times. But you should always bear in mind that nothing is entirely sunshine and roses. Going on workation is associated with new challenges. You should be ready for new expenses, dealing with COVID-19 restrictions or time-zone differences.

Being aware of these difficulties helps in creating a complete picture of workations. Because ultimately, you have to weigh the pros and cons to decide if this is right for you. The good news is that almost always, the pros outweigh the cons!

Let's look at more details about the workations statistics. All survey-based data were collected and prepared by Passport Photo Online.
