When I asked the question that is the topic of this
month's blogspot, Google's AI summarized some of the reasons, for instance, "…individuals often create personal, self-imposed, or
insurance-based policies to manage costs and safety…" and "…Opting
for personal travel or holiday insurance to cover trip cancellations, medical
emergencies, or lost luggage…" as well as, "…, particularly
freelancers or solo entrepreneurs, may also adopt corporate-style travel
policies to manage expenses and safety…"
Of course, if you run a small business,
every scrap of proof is an important addition to claiming a deduction for
business expenses, and I always found that keeping a travel diary helped to
identify my daily actions while engaging in my business endeavors.
Finally, I have included an IRS document
that should be updated to the latest offered on this topic of travel expense.
And, finally, if none of the above applies
to you, then have great time traveling to your destination and winging it, but
then as I've often noted, you never know when Murphy's law suddenly creates an
unforeseen disaster, which is when a travel policy with advice on what to do in
specific circumstances with phone numbers and email addresses, can come in
handy.
Meanwhile, whatever you do, enjoy the
creation of memories to keep you smiling even when you are in permanently glued
to your armchair remembering your adventures.
Happy traveling!
