What’s better in life than going on vacation? Running away from routine, discovering new places, magnificent landscapes, new customs are essential to my happiness and my personal fulfillment.
Besides, I can’t imagine my life without traveling . So much so that as soon as I come back from vacation, I’m already thinking about my next destination. I get inspired by reading travel blogs I find on Pinterest. I have also created several tables on the subject.

I am certainly not an isolated case since according to studies from 2018, 66% of French people have gone on vacation. An absolute record! I am convinced that this trend will only increase in the years to come. But why do we have this need to escape?
Why is it so important to go on vacation? For a bunch of reasons!
Do you know that holidays are good for your health? Recent studies have proven it. Going on vacation could even lengthen life expectancy. The stress and anxiety caused by intense professional activity or daily worries can cause cardiovascular disease. It is therefore very important to take a break and release the pressure. Going on vacation is like therapy.Finding yourself in a different environment that makes us feel good, taking care of ourselves and our loved ones, giving ourselves time, doing only what we love without any constraint are essential to recharging our batteries.
To escape the routine
When our daily life becomes too heavy, it’s time to take off. Routine is reassuring but sometimes change is necessary.Exploring the world is like an oxygen bubble in our well-timed lives. Changing our lifestyle and breaking with everyday life is essential to avoid sinking into a monotonous life or even into depression. The couple also needs this break to find themselves because routine is the worst enemy of marriage.
To make your dreams come true
Social networks and the internet have allowed us to discover incredible places. For years we have dreamed of visiting them. And one day, we decide to make our dreams come true. No matter the destination, it is accessing our deepest desires that is most important. It is a real gift of life that boosts us and makes our existence much more interesting. We thus become aware that nothing is impossible. Would traveling be a trigger for a positive attitude?
To grow
To travel is to learn. We are enriched by everything we discover. Guided tours, discussions with locals, what we share during our meetings with other holidaymakers allow us to learn more about the customs and history of the country we are traveling through. Ditto when we travel to France. We are lucky to have such a rich heritage. Our history lessons are very far away and this is an opportunity to rediscover the important facts that have marked our country.
We come back different from our trips. Some prejudices disappear and we grow from these beautiful human experiences..
To get to know each other better
Holidays are synonymous with discoveries. It is often during these moments that we decide to try new experiences like swimming with sharks, jumping off a bridge, climbing a mountain, trying thrill rides or eating insects. We didn’t think we were really capable of it, but in the end the relaxed atmosphere pushes us to surpass ourselves and take up challenges. We surprise ourselves with our exploits, we discover ourselves brave and daring and it is with great pride that we will tell our adventures when we return from vacation.
Going on vacation is definitely the best thing we can do. It’s a bonus in our lives and if you have the chance to do it then don’t hesitate! No need to go far, just find a place that meets our desires. Whether in a metropolis, by the beach or in the mountains, everything is conducive to a change of scenery, to letting go. And the opportunity also to disconnect from social networks…
That’s good ! The holidays are approaching and I imagine that you are impatient for new adventures. But what will be your destination? I’m curious !
My getaway to Porto
I have just returned from a few days spent in the city of Porto, for which I have a particular fondness. The Portuguese are very welcoming and I really like the atmosphere there. Between the sun, the beach, the sublime landscapes and the good meals eaten in local restaurants, this little getaway did me good. I can only advise you to go and stay in this endearing city. Everything is there for a successful holiday.
