This Video Will Encourage You To Take All Your Vacation Days This Year



HomeAway is trying to convince people through the power of spoken word poetry to convince people to take all of their vacation time.


A study quoted on Upworthy says 41 percent of workers don’t plan on taking all of their vacation days. On average, workers leave 3.2 days on the table.


HomeAway is a vacation rental company, so, obviously, they have a stake in all of us taking some time off (and using their services). And for the video, they’ve enlisted Prince EA, a musician and founder of a company called Make Smart Cool. It’s kind of a strange combination, but the result is also strangely compelling. Maybe because he’s cute and the message is a good one? I don’t know.


So will you be taking all of your vacation time?
