Weekend Escapes: Finding Time for You!
Travel is something that brings me so much JOY. There are so many places I want to explore, both near and far. If you’re like me, juggling the demands of a career and family, finding time to travel and explore can be difficult.
Do you find yourself trapped in the monotony of your weekly routine, dreaming of your upcoming vacation that’s 5 months away? You’re not alone!
As much as I love a weeklong (or longer!) vacation, sometimes it just isn’t an option timewise. Unwinding is so important and necessary in today’s fast paced world. Even a quick getaway can provide a much-needed reset. That’s where a weekend escape can make all the difference in the world!
We all deserve a break, even if it’s just for a couple of days. Weekend Escapes are mini vacations designed for your busy life. They’re the perfect solution when you’re looking to relax and rejuvenate without breaking the bank or using all of your vacation days.
One of the biggest problems we all face is finding the time to explore all the places we want to see and experience. Life is demanding! Between work and family commitments and all the responsibilities in between, it’s tough to take many week-long vacations throughout the year, especially year after year!
So, Why Weekend Escapes?
In the past, I always looked at the weekend as a time to run errands and schedule all of my necessary appointments…hair, nails, facials…however, now I’m finding ways to incorporate those appointments into the work week or schedule them all on one Saturday and get it out of the way. Why? So I can spend the other weekends doing something more fulfilling…like travelling!
We all need a break and a way to recharge after a hectic week. Weekend escapes offer the perfect solution to get away, relax and explore. However, planning a trip, regardless of if it’s a weekend or a week, takes time…something we can all probably agree on is limited! This series is all about cutting down your planning time so you can spend more time doing!
