Workations aren’t just a nice-to-have. They’re a strategy. Time together builds the foundation for great async work later. At TRC, we meet up so we can work better apart. It’s not about working less, it’s about aligning more, trusting deeper, and returning to remote life with clarity and momentum. Remote-first isn’t remote-only. It’s remote-intentional. 

Being remote-first means more than skipping the commute. It means: 🕓 Async workflows 🧱 Tools that empower autonomy 🌍 Culture that connects across borders At TRC, we live this daily and build tools that support it.

The days of rushing out the door, sitting in traffic, and sprinting to your desk are over. Now, the workday starts with a tap, not a train. At The Remote Company, we believe the best work doesn’t happen in transit, it happens when people have the freedom to work from wherever they’re most inspired. Remote-first culture Async by default Teams across time zones Workations that bring us together Because great work isn’t about where you are. It’s about what you build.

Why are shared meals so important during Workations? Because connection happens around the table. When teams come together in person, after months of async work across time zones, meals become more than just a time to eat. They’re moments to bond, share stories, and build the kind of trust that fuels great remote teamwork. Here’s why we always prioritize shared meals during Workations: - Breaks down hierarchy: No Slack statuses, just people connecting as humans. Conversations flow naturally, and ideas spark in ways they wouldn’t in a formal meeting. - Encourages organic conversations: Some of the best brainstorming happens between bites, not in structured sessions. When people feel relaxed, creativity thrives. - Creates shared experiences: Inside jokes, memorable moments, and bonding over local flavors help turn colleagues into true teammates. These are the stories that carry back into remote work life. - Helps remote teams feel like a real team: Sharing meals is a universal way to build relationships. It reminds us that work is about people first. At Remote Company, we believe that Workations aren’t just about productivity, they’re about building the relationships that make remote work better when we return to our own spaces. And there’s no better way to do that than gathering around a meal. What’s the most memorable meal you’ve had with your remote team? Here's ours with our team in Argentina!

How do you keep teams connected and motivated when everyone is back in their own time zone after a Workation? 🌎 The magic of a Workation is real, but what happens when everyone returns to their own workspace, async schedules, and scattered time zones? Staying connected as a remote team requires intentionality. Here’s how we make it work at The Remote Company: Make async work… work. Clear documentation, well-structured processes, and strong communication tools keep teams aligned without endless meetings. Overcommunicate the big stuff. Transparency builds trust. Share company goals, celebrate wins, and make sure everyone knows how their work contributes to the bigger picture. Create rituals that bring people together. From Slack kudos to informal Slack channels, maintaining small team rituals keeps the culture strong, even when we’re miles apart. Encourage autonomy, but foster connection. People should have the freedom to work in the way that suits them best, but they should also feel part of something bigger. A mix of structured collaboration and social interactions keeps engagement high. Plan the next meet-up! Knowing there is another in-person moment coming, whether it’s a small team retreat or workation, gives people something to look forward to. Remote-first doesn’t mean relationship-second. With the right systems in place, remote teams can stay aligned, motivated, and connected, no matter the distance. What’s your best tip for keeping remote teams engaged? Drop it in the comments! 👇

Because remote work doesn’t mean working in isolation. While async and flexible schedules help teams stay productive, IRL time strengthens what remote work starts. Workations give teams the chance to: ✅ Strengthen relationships beyond Slack and Zoom ✅ Spark creativity in a fresh environment ✅ Align on big-picture goals while sharing real moments ✅ Boost motivation and engagement in a fun way At The Remote Company, we’ve seen firsthand how workations re-energize teams and create stronger bonds. They aren’t just a perk—they’re an investment in culture, collaboration, and long-term success. Has your company done a Workation before? Share your experience in the comments with us!
