Working From Home, Or Working From Anywhere?

(NBC News) Millions of Americans are now working at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, while some are working far away from home.

Travel blogger Lindsey Myers and her husband like to rent out their home in Charleston while they travel the world.

“We did it in Bali for a couple months, we’ve done Scotland and Ireland we did Belgium,” Myers says.

Those incentives include day rates, discounts for extended stays and a helping hand.

“We’re seeing work and play packages that include things like Business Butlers that will help you set up that workspace, whether it be in the lobby or in a cabana by the pool,” Tornatore says.
