Workation is a topic that still interests employees. Imagine who wouldn't want to work in a place with beautiful views, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Remote work has permanently entered our work-related vocabulary. And although it was often practiced during the pandemic, some people can still work this way. And if so, what's stopping you from connecting online with other employees from anywhere in the world?
Workation - remote work or a vacation in the mountains
The word "workation" is a combination of "work" and "vacation" and signifies the possibility of combining work with leisure. While this work model is relatively popular in the West, it has gained significance with us only recently.
Workation is certainly not the same as home office, and the two should not be confused. After all, work doesn't have to be done at home; rather, it can be in a typically touristy location with views of the sea, mountains, or dense forests.
Working in such a manner positively affects creativity. It starts with a change of scenery. Employees on workation have the opportunity to explore and discover new things, which in turn inspires them. One of the positive aspects of remote work combined with a vacation is the improvement in health and mental well-being. Workation destinations are usually chosen not only for their tourist appeal but also for their positive impact on human health. A month-long stay by the sea or in the mountains is recommended, especially for allergy sufferers and individuals with frequent respiratory infections. Daily walks along mountain trails have a fantastic effect on fitness, and the green color of dense forests helps transition quickly from work mode to relaxation.
Workation in the mountains or by the sea?
Where to go for workation depends on personal preferences. Whether it's the sea, the Mazury lakes, or the mountains, each destination can be ideal for remote work. For beach enthusiasts, the Polish seaside is a recommended choice. If you want to hide away in a cottage in the woods, choose a place in the Mazury region. Mountains are definitely an option for those who enjoy active relaxation.
If you're looking for a secluded place in the mountains, Wisła, the city of Adam Małysz in the Silesian Voivodeship, is a good choice.
Wisła is not only a recreational center but also a sports and cultural hub, hosting events like the Summer Grand Prix in ski jumping, World Cup competitions, the Beskid Culture Week, and the Jerzy Pilch "Granatowe Góry" Word Festival. These are just a few events from a very long list of attractions in Wisła.
So, if you choose Wisła for remote work, you can not only actively relax by exploring numerous cycling routes but also participate in exciting events held in the city.
Which hotel in the mountains to choose for workation?
If you want to find the answer to this question, first consider what you need for effective work and relaxation.
Key factors include fast wireless internet, a hotel room with good sound insulation, comfortable beds, and a kitchen that can meet your needs. Free parking is also important. Workation typically lasts a while, so it's not worth paying extra for parking.
You can find all these things at the Vestina Hotel in Wisła Malinka. Malinka is a quiet part of the city, about a 10-minute drive from the city center. From the hotel windows, you have a beautiful view of the Cieńków mountain ridge.
