“Isn’t it amazing how much stuff we get done the day before vacation?” — Zig Ziglar
This idea of why we go on vacation has been poking at my mind for the past two weeks.

It’s a precarious situation bc traveling is by nature stressful. Catching flights, trains, keeping the family together, attempting not to spend the entire family savings, etc. What if vacation isn’t only for that time after the kids get out of school. What if we can somehow always be on vacation? I don’t mean like, what if we can live in Hawaii and live off of our awesome investment. I mean what if there is…
