Coworking and Travel go hand and hand 

Work and travel programs are also known as Travel working are currently trending with self-employed individuals. It is like working and travelling at the same time being a part of like-minded people without hindering productiveness.




It is said that, you could travel all the time, exploring all the places on your bucket list with getting a salary. If that sounds good then you should explore this new option which is travel working option. Imagine the amount of networking you will get to do and this would, in turn, eliminate the chances of work monotony. These travel workers have a new term in the lingo all by themselves. They are called ‘gappers’ and their maxim is to hop from one place to others making work fun. 

High profile jobs to small-time duty workers, anyone can opt for such a workstyle. These kinds of jobs demand people, to be in touch with each other, they are given an allowance of a certain amount and incentives with benefits like the internet, working with like-minded people. 



You get to meet a lot of people from different professions across the globe, out of which many are artists, journalists, graphic designers, lawyers and many more. They also sail in the same boat contributing to a break from monotony. So imagine, you wouldn’t have to save extra just to travel. 

What Works?

  1. Office space has a limited amount of people for interaction. Hence, to build a stronger network, travel working helps to approach people and share ideas face to face. 
  2. Travelling is fun when you get to go to a different place every day because you feel more inspired and this increases productivity. Work can become adventurous and you won’t feel monotonous. 
  3. All your travel expenses are bared by your workspace and you don’t have to save extra.
  4. You would have unlimited options to explore and make contacts, you can learn a lot culturally and experience the diversification. 


What doesn’t work?

  1. In an office space, you get your own space either in a cubicle or shared space, but while travelling you won’t have as much privacy as you ought to get. 
  2. You might want regular coworkers who interact with you on a daily basis. You might end up missing the gossips or even just sharing moments. 
  3. You might also have a diet or health problem, as travelling continuously may hamper your wellbeing and schedule.
