Ep. 73: Planning a Work-cation on Points with Amena (@hassansonholiday)
Today we are chatting with Amena (@hassansonholiday) who was a speaker at our summit in May talking about Planning a Work-Cation with a Family. Amena shares her experiences balancing work and play while traveling with her family, and challenges and strategies of working and traveling remotely. She also shares some of the redemptions she has done as work-cations, and how to maximize points and hotel perks to save money when traveling as a family. In this episode, you will learn:
• Cultural attitudes towards credit cards can vary, but it is possible to navigate these attitudes and still earn points.
• Starting to earn and use points and miles later in life is still beneficial and can provide opportunities for travel.
• Building relationships with hotel staff and leaving positive reviews can lead to better experiences and potential promotions for the staff.
• Working while traveling with a family is possible with proper planning and time management.
• Longer stays in each location can help families to balance work and play.
• Flexibility and proactive planning are key to making the most of travel opportunities.
• Be open to alternative destinations and accommodations!
...and more!
