Well, hello there.
It’s Wednesday Friday and I’m just now writing Monday’s
this week’s prompts…
Interestingly enough, the question is ‘Do you find it easy to
go offline during vacation?’
I happen to have the day off work on Monday and social plans
the other days, so I think the obvious answer is ‘yes.’
However, I’ll explain. J
When I’m on vacation, I take a lot more pictures (which I
hard to believe given the amount of pictures I take on daily basis). But I post
less and check social media less. When I’m on vacation, especially when I’m out
of town, I want to present and focused on the experience. I love visiting new
places and just soaking it all in. At that point, I find social media to be
distracting. However, the internet is my best friend when traveling. Pre-
vacation I will research which local restaurants are the best, which local bars
are the most popular, which dives are a ‘must see’ and what attractions the new
place has to offer. How did people ever plan a trip without the internet? It really
is a wonderful thing.
If I’m on vacation at home- meaning I took a couple days off
work- I am probably more connected to the internet. Mostly because I use that
time to blog or catch up with friends. sometimes those days off are spent in
isolation and re-energizing for the days and weeks ahead. It really depends on
why I took the vacation and what my mood is.
How about you?
Do you find it difficult to go offline during vacation? Or
is it a natural part of your everyday- vacation or not?
