RE: 8 Lessons Learned After Working Remote For One Month (Workcation in the US)

in #travel7 years ago

Great post.

Whenever we book a place to stay, I always try to ensure it has decent internet. Like you say, having good mobile phone reception and a good data plan is a life saver - last year, in the lake district, the internet was down due to a storm, but I was able to tether my phone to my laptop to update our website and Facebook etc.

HAHAHH! I love this GIF!
Thank you. I tried to make sure they all had WIFI, but there's no way a hotel would tell me up front "we do have WIFI, but it's not working too well". Ha ha.. Oh, I guess you can never prepare for a storm :(

Is your laptop waterproof if not then be-careful near water with your electronic equipment @susanne and last you should enjoy your vacation rather than working on your vacation as well.

Ha ha! Good point! It is not waterproof. :(
I know, but I wanted to try this. I just had 6 months of vacation in Australia, so I am just happy to be working again now. How are you ?

+1 this

Once you get into more out of the way places (Asia) then Internet can be a real pain.

You really need a backup plan.

I'll have to post the full story on my feed sometime, but there have definitely been days where I went to every place in a small city in Nepal before finding a computer shop that would let me use their Wifi... go figure the local techie has the only Internet in town that works all the time!

Cool gif!
