We already know it’s a great place for a holiday but now Bangkok has also been ranked as the number one city in the world for a ‘workation’ – a visit combining work and vacation – with Phuket also ranking in the top 10. The two Thai destinations ranked among the top cities in the world where people can take a break from their office life and have a holiday while still keeping up with work remotely. The Tourism Authority of Thailand announced the new survey which was conducted by Holidu, a German vacation search engine. The Workation Index rated 150 cities around the world based on the costs of renting a one-bedroom apartment, the cost of a cocktail after a long workday, Wi-Fi speeds, hours of sun each day, leisure activities available and so on. Bangkok won the top spot. Holidu saw the financial and cultural advantages of a workation in a Thai city, saying both Bangkok and Phuket offer an attractive balance of quality of life and affordability. So what are you waiting for?
