1 What Did Marco Do During His Amplivacation?
It was during the middle of 2015 that I thought of doing something special for my birthday. But what, exactly? I definitely wanted to do something that I hadn’t ever done before.
I’ve always told myself that, if given the opportunity to travel abroad, I would want to visit the nation of Thailand. For some reason, I have always been fascinated to visit that country and learn more about its rich culture.
So, after becoming eligible to take advantage of our Quickskill Amplivacation program, I went to Thailand during the first week of December (2015).
It was a very memorable experience! The fact that I traveled alone and visited some of the tourist destinations was awesome! I could not do anything but be in total awe and amazement with God’s creation seeing all the temples, Buddhas, and how they were built.
I enjoyed their food, most especially their Phad Thai, which is one of their native delicacies. I received a Thai massage that stretched my bones, and I braved the very crowded Chatuchak Market.
I went to their floating market, which I believe was the highlight of my vacation. Yes, it was kind of expensive…but the experience I got could never be compensated by any amount of money (teary-eyed).
I spent so much time just digesting every moment of that beautiful place while I was in the boat floating.
People are kind in Thailand, in my experience. It is a safe and sound place that seems to be perfect for every traveler wanting to discover how Thailand is growing fast in the region of Asia.

3Work-Life Balance Tips
Well, the whole Thailand journey helped me appreciate more of the world and its people. It has given me the opportunity to see things beyond what I normally see around me. I can have memories that I can re-live for the rest of my life.
More than that, this journey has unleashed a new perspective in terms of work ethics and values. I realized that there is always more to life than sitting at a desk working through a computer monitor during my workday.
It’s all about work-life balance.
