Weird question I know. Before I accepted this new job, I booked a 10 day trip to Rome, Italy and paid for the Airbnb, flight, reserved a budget for it. I wanted to go out and finally do something. But this new job has us on rotational shifts and it means I’ll have to work from 12pm-9pm on most days and will only have 2 free days. I’m starting to have regret.
How do you find time to enjoy things while having to actually work? It seems like people who are digital nomads are free. I wanted to be able to go out and try diff restaurants, explore, all of that but I won’t be able to
You won’t be enjoying all the time. You will be tired sometimes, and deserving some rest, and that’s ok.
For me, what helped was trying to have a healthy workload and trying to have a fixed work schedule as well
To enjoy the city in a workday, you can try to have lunch in differents restaurantes sometimes, do a quick break in the afternoon to go to a cafe or a park… or even find a cowork place sometimes
