And why even the most fun-sounding job boils down to strong organizational skills. b.: How often do you travel? Lakshmin: It ebbs and flows. Sometimes I’m traveling for work; sometimes I’m traveling for fun. Sometimes I’m traveling for work and then I add on a couple of extra days for fun, because I’m always trying to see as much of the world as possible.
… My running joke is I don’t have work-life balance; I have work list of israel cell phone numbers -life integration. I have my laptop with me; I’ve got Canva [and] Asana on my phone. I’m constantly making sure I am plugged into what’s going on. And it works, because I love traveling, and I love my job. So, the line between work and play for me is very blurry at best. I know that’s not the case for everybody, but I feel very fortunate that that is the life I’m living right now.
I’m working on planes. I’m working at airports. I spend a lot of time on buses and trains with my laptop, out in hotels, waking up early, staying up late, doing what I gotta do. But it is a really fun job … because I know that there’s something else I want to see or something else I want to get to. … It is in a lot of ways a dream job for me.
It is a very great and rewarding job to be able to package up wonderful travel content and stories from around the world in a way that it reaches more people. I personally believe travel is the way you get to open your mind to new experiences. You get to find out new things about yourself, and also about others. I think it opens up the lens so it becomes easier to step into other people’s shoes, see how folks across the world from you live and how they approach life.
