For us at THG, summer is a very busy time as we continue our research and curate data to have reports ready for folks when they return from vacation. The end of August typically reveals a window in which I can daisy chain a few good weather days together for a short break. This summer we are officially taking a vacation! Two years ago we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and promised ourselves we would return to the Mediterranean someday. Well it seems #Sweet16 is the year. It is exciting and frightening all at the same time as the internet connection will be minimal – at best. The little villa we booked says that we might have WiFi on the balcony on a clear day. I said pardon?
A forced electronic detox. Ok. Wish me luck! For years I have dreamed of working from anywhere and have been an avid pioneer and ambassador for telecommuting.
Like we have seen of late with the Pokémon Go players, I do not want to be the crazed WiFi Warrior roaming the Italian coast hunting for connection or a rare Mewtwo!
How do you handle being disconnected from work? Are you a star or a rookie like me?
Timely yours, Brenda
