What’s a vacation?
I'm an American. The only vacations I've had in the last 5 years that aren't work related trips have been staying home and cleaning. The big problem is lining up time when my wife and I both can take time off work, which has been nigh on impossible recently.
To be clear, this isn't bragging. I need a real vacation but the combination of COVID, wanting to buy a house, and my wife needing to spend her leave on things that aren't vacation (sick leave, bereavement leave) has led us to not being able to sync something up since our honeymoon.
