Nah! Have you not heard of a "workcation"? A "workaction" is where you put your usual hours but then after hours, you're in the beach, a new country, etc. Being remote allows you to sporadically take workcations more often. It personally works for me because I can get 100% of my work done in a macbook. All I need is good internet access. A typical workcation for me (because we have a toddler) is a three-day weekend getaway to a nearby city. Less frequently, we'll fly out of the country for two weeks at a time. It is AMAZING!

It works for us because a) my work fits on my macbook, b) it's sporadic---the longer the stay, the less frequent the trip
