Travel Essentials | Coworking Trips

These 5 things you should definitely have on your trip!

Welcome to the seventh episode of my YouTube show! To all of you who missed the first shows: I’ll be introducing you to 5 travel essentials for a specific type of trip each week. CoWorking has become the norm due to the current situation. Every day we notice that many travelers are embracing this new form of work. So, due to its growing popularity, this week I’m showing you 5 travel paraphernalia for CoWorking trips. The best part? I’m picking out products that are currently on sale so you can get some real bargains.

Check in and I’ll show you 5 travel essentials for your CoWorking trips:

So let’s have a look at the products I talk about in my show:

A second Screen

I’ll start right away with the most important of the 5 travel essentials for your CoWorking tripsA second screen. Niels, our CEO, “forces” us, to exaggerate, to use a second screen while working. Why? He always says so nicely: Have you ever seen a programmer without a second screen or Bluetooth mouse? When he is right, he is right! Working with a second screen is much more efficient and faster. I didn’t believe it either, but now I can’t imagine working without it. This one is from the Acer brand, which stands for good quality. You can enjoy an insanely good resolution, which is very important since we sit in front of the screen for 8-10 hours every day. The screen also has several ports, such as HDMI and VGA.

One travel essential you must take on your coworking trip is a second screen.

A bluetooth mouse

While we’re on the subject of Niels’ unbeatable advice, here’s the next one! A Bluetooth mouse is one of the most important travel items when you’re on a co-working trip. Just like a second screen, it’s much faster and easier to work with. You can switch the mouse pointer between your two screens with just one click. You can connect it to one device via Bluetooth, to the other via USB. At a table full of co-workers, every little noise can get on your nerves, especially when you have to concentrate. This mouse guarantees silent clicking by reducing noise by up to 90 percent. You’ll never have to worry about disturbing others with your clicking again. It is perfect for those who need a quiet working atmosphere. It is also compatible with a wide range of devices.

Sun oil

While I was planning this episode, I talked to Anna, our CoWorking expert and dear colleague. She has already been on several trips as TripLeader as well as TripMate and therefore had numerous tips, which I now pass on to you here and now. Among the most important 5 travel essentials for your CoWorking Trips, besides the second screen and mouse, is suntan oil. Since you will be spending a lot of time under the sun, on the beach for example or on your balcony, this is very important! This oil has SPF 15 and is absolutely waterproof. It is designed for all those who would like to get a golden tan, but whose skin should remain soft, well-nourished and protected. It is suitable for all skin types and is vegan and environmentally friendly!

Multifunctional foil

While we’re on the subject of sun, here comes the next travel essential- a foil for your laptop! This was also particularly important to Anna, as she worked outside a lot. On CoWorking trips and also in the home office two main problems occur, which this foil solves perfectly. One is the blue light that very often damages the eyes when we stare at the screen for too long. On the other hand, the sun’s rays with their brightness worsen the vision and thus the work efficiency. This film has built-in blue light protection and protects against scratches. It is also water and oil-resistant. However, make sure that your display has the same size as this film, you do not want to end up without it!

Prime Video

Now imagine that work is done and you just want to enjoy the rest of the evening with your CoWorking Crew! Besides cool activities you can do together, there’s nothing wrong with a relaxing evening in your CoWorking Villa. One great thing is Prime Video. There you will find thousands of famous movies, TV shows and award-winning Amazon Originals. In addition to all these smash hits, millions of items are delivered to you in just one day. With so much to choose from, you may find yourself at a loss for evening entertainment, but there are definitely bigger things to worry about! You can try Prime Video for free for 30 days, after which you’ll only pay $7.99 per month. So you definitely can’t go wrong.
