But does it have to?\n\nI&#8217;ll fly from the west coast Monday, arrive in Germany late Tuesday afternoon, work the rest of the week and return home on Saturday.\n\nI&#8217;ve made hundreds of working trips like this one and notice something: when I go to a place with which I&#8217;m comfortable and familiar, I feel little or no jet lag.\n\nThis\u00a0is\u00a0true for trips to places as far-flung as the UK, Japan and Hong Kong. It doesn&#8217;t seem to matter whether I&#8217;m flying east or west or ahead or back in time.\n\nIf I&#8217;m comfortable with the hotels, restaurants, and\u00a0working set-up I&#8217;m less anxious. Whenever possible I have a snack in a familiar restaurant,\u00a0exercise in fresh air, and get organized for the work shortly after arrival.\n\nOf course missing a night&#8217;s sleep is bound to catch up with anyone, and I try to sleep en route if I&#8217;m arriving at my destination in the morning. But it&#8217;s interesting that, at least for me,\u00a0the classic jet lag symptoms\u00a0are lessened by a comparatively stress-free assignment and destination. Now\u00a0if only every trip could be like that!]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 -
