Working from home used to seem like the dream once upon a time. Now? Not so much. It has somehow become more exhausting and tiresome from working from home than it actually was going to the office! Nothing can be done now, though- the pandemic has made sure of that.
Or has it?
There is no doubt that going on vacation and travelling these days is entirely out of the question. But what if you could escape your home temporarily and take a fresh breath of air? Well, you can now. Resorts and homestay companies everywhere are providing a ‘workation’ to everyone who wants a break from their mundane routine.
These are mini-vacations away from home which allows you to chill, work and relax, including a variety of hospitality services. Each of these sites strictly follows guidelines laid down by the government to ensure that you are safe. The best part? Regarding the culture of workation, India has stepped up its game. Several hotels, resorts and homestays provide a workation package to all. Let’s check ‘em out!

Zostel is the largest hostel chain present in India, spread over 38 cities to accommodate backpackers and other budget travellers. They too have begun their workation campaign.
