People heard the word "business trip" is fun and exciting however not all people during a business trip enjoy like a tourist. Perhaps they're focus on their goal and work most of their time to get done and leave the place.
The Best Way to Enjoy Traveling on a Business Trip:
Travel advance- If you have a kick off or conference make sure you arrived 1 day advance and you'd surprise how many things you could see on one day.
Leave 1 day after your conference- Most people tends to leave in the office once they are done with their conference or meeting. Invite your colleagues in the local stores and ask her where to buy souvenir.
Local restaurant-Most people focus on their job and forget the word "fun" hey, you can enjoy and have fun while on business trip.Take your colleague in a local restaurant and talk business over the food.It is more exciting to discover new cuisine and talk business.
Plan- It is important to plan ahead of time. You have 1 or days free time, wing it and plan your getaways like visiting museums, aquarium or even historic places.
Don't stress yourself on business trip. Enjoy the opportunity to travel while getting paid.
A long shot that I can experience a business trip but your tips will come in very handy for people-on-the-go.
ReplyDeleteWe always do this like when we have something important to do in that place, we make sure that we'll arrive that day in advance for us to have a chance to roam around the place and try their local delicacies. And even after that important matter, we also make sure to have an extra day to buy something for our trip back home. :)

ReplyDeleteMy husband, whenever he travels on a business, if it's just a road trip-- we can always go with him. But if it is flying, we cannot anymore. And yes, when you go to a business trip, you can always find time to insert a moment for some fun.

ReplyDeleteI've only been to one business trip before and contrary to what you've shared, I arrived two days late for my week-long conference and left on the day just after the conference ended. :( but when I arrived, it was the city tour so I was still fortunate even if I was late.. hehehe.
