Vacations to Russia and China? I count myself luck to take a few days off around a weekend. I don’t think I have ever taken a real vacation. I wonder what it would be like?
Not just any vacation, but six weeks of vacation. Who gets six weeks of vacation? And I presume it’s paid. No wonder they’re tanking!
I went to Canada with my parents when I was 16. I’ve never been in another foreign country. Stunningly, I own my house without the bank, my cars are paid for with cash, and we’re saving money for the kids to go to college, or have in a trust if a college degree is worthless in 12 years.
But I’ve never seen the Eiffel Tower at midnight! How can I live with myself! ;)
Same here.
I am in the same boat. Even if I could take a vacation, I don't think I could enjoy it anyway, going back to the grind is hard enough. Just being home is a vacation to me.
“I wonder what it would be like?”
me too!
On my last vacation, I had to fly into Sacramento. I thought I had entered a time warp and landed in 1930s fascist Germany. So vacations aren’t all they’re advertised to be.
From my experience, I recommend you stock up on ammo, coffee and bowling balls. Vacation in your backyard with a BBQ grill and as many cases of cold beer as necessary. (Bake some chocolate fudge to attract females. Unless, of course, you’re a female. Then slip on a bikini and fire off 30 round clips from your assault rifle. ) Bon voyage.
