Travelling has become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to the advent of the Internet and social media as well as the emergence of newer technologies. Its prevalence has not only encouraged solo travel but also has convinced many people to start working while traveling. In fact, there was a 22% increase in telecommuting in 2018. And while this can be the greatest thing anyone can ever do, it’s only ever great when you’re actually working while travelling. And this can be done by staying in a good location.

You should be close to establishments

Regardless of what type of accommodation you want to book, whether it is a luxurious hotel or a humble hostel, you must book one that’s close to everything that you’ll need. This includes restaurants, convenience stores, and even pharmacies. You also need to make sure that you’re within 30 minutes to one hour away from the hospital in case you get into an accident. Speaking of accidents, remember to get travel insurance before you go anywhere. This will make sure that you are taken care of in the event of an accident, plus it will also give you peace of mind.

You need stable internet connection

It’s easy to find a place to go to. What’s not easy is making sure that the country or city you’re visiting has a good, stable internet connection. While this may not matter that much when you’re a novelist, a bad internet connection can negatively affect your trip. Imagine going from one coffee shop to the next and realizing no matter where you go, you won’t be able to do any work. That sounds frustrating, right? Before you book a hotel, make sure to read the reviews, especially the ones describing the internet situation.

You’ll Want Entertainment Nearby

There is no point in working while travelling if it takes you over an hour to find entertainment. After all, the reason you’re traveling and working at the same time is probably to see new things and experience new cultures. It’s going to be a chore to go somewhere far after a day’s work. In many places, a lot of tourist attractions close before dark, which makes staying in a good location even more important. As for evening entertainment, you’ll want to be walking distance away from bars, clubs, the cinema, and maybe a shopping center.

It’s great to be able to travel while you’re working. It really allows you to live life to the fullest. To maximize this experience, make sure you’ve done enough research about the place you’re traveling to and that you pick the best location you can get.
