Getting into the PR industry, travel is often a part of the job and you should definitely make the most of it. It has its ups; you get to see new places, discover new sights and travel to locations you wouldn’t normally see. If you follow us on Instagram (@nycprgirls), you probably saw some photos from my travels this week. While I love to travel, business travel isn’t always as glamorous as it seems. Those of you who have been in PR for several years would most likely agree.
Business travel:
- Is usually last minute
- Takes you away from a full day of work
- Racks up your to-do list
- Can be lonely
- Comes with expenses
- Leaves you tired
- Turns the weather against you
- Often comes with flight delays
- Makes you miss home
- Is quick, leaving you with little to no time to explore
- Can be filled with pressure depending on your reason for travel
How do you feel about business travel?

One of the aspects that drew me to public relations was the travel. Even if the travel is not extensive or far, you’re never in the same place for very long and I am thrilled embarking on this new career path knowing that there will not be a single week of monotonous, uneventful tasks! You’ll always have home to come back too and there’s not always enough time involved in business travel to really miss it – everything’s an adventure!
