V.A.C.A.T.I.O.N. . . in the Summertime!

By Adrea P., Startup America Communications Intern, @startupamerica

It’s the middle of summer, and temperatures are rising here in DC. Time to take a break (yes, a break!) from your startup and go on vacation.

If your startup salary will not cover the trip of your dreams, sign up for Startup America member myTab.  Create a trip on the website, and your friends and family can help you have fun by contributing towards your travel fund.  myTab also allows users to budget and plan a trip—just add money to your own fund using myCash and before you know it you’ll be laying in the sun! 

If you have young kids and a young business to take care of, planning a vacation can seem daunting.  Use Startup America member FamiliesGo to simplify the planning process.  FamiliesGo is an online forum where parents can share travel experiences and reviews of hotels.  Select an area to view a list of hotels with detailed profiles. Read the Advice section for family vacation guidance, and even find a taxi company that provides a car seat. Does your startup simplify family vacation?  Contact FamiliiesGo for the possibility of a partnership.

With Startup America member Lost Hotels, you can be a traveler, not a tourist. Check out the weekly deal for some amazing travel opportunities. For each deal, Lost Hotels will tell you how to best communicate, what to eat, what to pack and more, so you can get lost in your vacation.  Lost Hotels helps you taste the local food, entertain local customs and traditions, support the local economy, and be a respectful traveler.

Relax, entrepreneurs! Take an opportunity to see the world.  When you are out there hiking, lying on the beach, or enjoying an exotic safari, you’ll be saying “what startup?”
