You read that right! This blog is being to brought to you by COVID-19. Quarantine is mandatory for new visitors in New York State. We’re still in a pandemic, guys, so no surprise here. Thankfully, if there is one thing I’m always ok with, it’s getting some quality me-time in. And as a virtual worker, I’m remote and often working from home anyway. Two weeks of quarantine? Piece of cake! Here’s the low-down on what I learned and how well it worked to keep me sane.

I made it! After two days, very little sleep and lots of coffee, I am officially in Albany. No limbs missing, just mostly brain fried as two sisters would be after driving up the coast for 2 days. The best piece of advice about driving up? Actually make it a road trip. Not a marathon. Take a few more days off, put the “getting there” anxiety to bed, and take longer rest stops in cities you have not been in before. Explore a little bit. Safely though!

I did it, you guys! After spending the time to build the foundation for the virtual and remote aspects of Vow + Vast, I’m in a position to start traveling full time to work wherever I want.
