Exploring Joburg's hotels with our 'roaming office'
As we get used to the 'new normal' becoming simply the 'normal' way of life, at Johannesburg In Your Pocket we have begun to rethink how we balance the home office lifestyle with exploring the city and meeting our colleagues In Real Life. In February we officially launched the Roaming Office, moving our team to work from a new space every Monday. Every week our office moves to a new Joburg hotel, giving us the opportunity to test drive the new flexible meeting options on offer, reconnect with our tourism and hospitality partners and get a look at what's new in Joburg's leading hotels.Follow our office on the move on our Instagram stories and look out for our monthly blog round-up of all the new places and spaces we have visited so far.
