I saw a segment on the morning news the other day about the skyrocketing number of summer rentals, particularly in the Jersey Shore area. While these houses are typically scooped up in the early part of the year, it’s been busier than normal as people are eager to travel again, are still unsure what restrictions on travel will be lifted by this summer, and have more flexibility with working remotely.

This begs the question, is there really a rental season anymore with so many people working remotely? The segment also addressed noting that shoulder seasons were busier than usual and rentals were longer. I’m sure this trend translates to other popular vacation spots.
Have you been working remotely from somewhere other than home? My husband doesn’t have the luxury of working from home, so we haven’t been able to take advantage of a work-cation, but I am interested in pursuing a summer rental somewhere — if there are any left! Do you have your summer rentals lined up already?

Although a destination’s terrain, cuisine and cultural attributes always draw travelers in, it is often the people they meet that make the trip an enduring memory rather than a box to be checked off. It’s a job responsibility that people working around the Plose and adjoining town of Brixen (in Italy’s Trentino-Alto Adige region) take seriously. This is even more true for five women dedicated to introducing visitors to new aspects of the time-honored ski, leisure and hiking mountain destination in the Dolomites.
