Not really. I can visit conferences, apply for new gigs, market research... There are limits, but if you are not greedy, it is perfectly fine. Bringing gf, renting cars, beach stay... would ruin it.

Not only that, it might not be tax deductible!


Thought that’s what they meant by “ruin it.”


Sorry it was a lame joke. You shouldn't be downvoted (downvote my joke instead people)


it was a boomer "ball and chain" joke


These are not "leisure travel" though. I guess for some people private life and business life are so intwined they no longer know the difference.


It varies by trip but if I take a business trip somewhere interesting I'll routinely tack on some personal time. But, even if I'm not adding days, I'll try to make a little time to explore a place.


I was about to say the same thing until I read your comment. 100% agree, for some the line between work and leisure is very blurred.
