As per Wiktionary, workation is ‘A vacation that combines business and leisure.’
As a travel blogger, this is the only kind of vacation I can ever have. This can be both positive as well as negative. However, I value my freedom to roam the world over everything else and hence, workations trump for me.
I am not the one to keep my laptop behind on my worldly adventures and there’s never a day of complete digital detox (Unless I am in the remote jungles of India).
So for me, every vacation is a workation and if I say Big berry in Slovenia is the ultimate workation destination – You better take my word for it 🙂
