In some cases, tacking on some remote work might allow you to stay longer in your vacation destination.

I never take a business trip without squeezing in some kind of personal respite or adventure. And I’ve yet to take a vacation without putting some hours into work.

So I’ve learned to make the most of this messy, delightful overlap—by developing my own personal do’s and don’ts for combining personal and professional travel. My main advice: Don’t be afraid to mix work and personal travel. Thanks to the rise of hybrid work, it’s a lot easier to work from the road. Simply extending a business trip by working from another city or town can give you a welcome change of pace and scenery. And if tacking on some remote work allows you to extend your time in your vacation destination, that can be worth a little boundary-blurring, too.
