How to Make a Workation Your Most Productive Time of the Year
Some think it’s a fancy term for a vacation, others assume it’s an excuse. But a workation can be really productive if you prep it right.
Working and being in a beautiful place: A workation is the best of both worlds for me. It gives me energy, motivation, and inspiration.
But it takes distinct preparation to make it an enriching experience for business and life, too.
I went on a 4-week workation in April. It went so well that I just planned another one. This is how I prepare to make sure it’s something I can do in ADDITION to vacation.

When planning a workation, I ensure I have all the equipment I need with me.
For example: I know I can work just with just my laptop alone. But I can work more efficiently when I have a few more things.
My packing list includes a second screen, mouse and keyboard, all the cables, a laptop stand, and even a portable daylight lamp.
I also check out if there are points of contact close by if something goes wrong, like an active digital nomad community and an Apple Store.
