You can combine work from home and holidays to enhance your productivity and improve your lifestyle.<\/h2>\n<p>Over the last period, because of the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, we were forced to change some of our most consolidated habits. A lot of new rules were created to organise work and study. As a consequence, a lot of workers and students changed their routines since they had to work and study from home. In this respect, a lot of people found the situation difficult: several people lamented that they were unmotivated and lazy. Others stated that relationships with colleagues are vital in order to work well.<\/p>\n<h2>Cons&#8230; and pros<\/h2>\n<p>However, every cloud has a silver lining. Working from home, a lot of people had the possibility to better change their routines; they could also organise in a more independent and productive way their schedules. In addition to this, they gain more free time to spend with their friends and relatives or doing relaxing activities.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, a new trend has developed: the <em>workation<\/em>. This new world is a mix of \u201cwork\u201d and \u201cvacation\u201d and it indicates the opportunity to work also on holiday.
