This is something that has crossed my mind as well, so I'm happy to see it work out for you guys.

Do you find the cost (presumably around $130/person/day) is well justified? Do you find the long plane trips and getting around your destination too much of a hassle/distraction?




The cost varies and we often pick cheap destinations, so it ends up being less than you might think.

Jet lag can be a drag for the people going transatlantic and you do have overhead at the location - getting setup, shopping / cooking, figuring out where you are and what to do in the evening.

But all travelling together, and solving those problems is part of the fun and team-building. We all look forward to the trips and enjoy the planning process, so it's not even just about the focus benefits on the trip itself.
