Well, I escaped another family trip. It was chaotic, as always. My siblings tested my patience. We went off course a couple of times, and then there was that weird incident at a gas station.

I'm drained, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. We have pictures to prove it.

Vacation Mode: Activated (Don't Talk to Me)

My phone is officially silenced/turned off/put away. Emails can chill until I get back. Social media is irrelevant for now. If you need me, leave a message on my answering machine/in a bottle/with the voicemail fairies. Otherwise, consider this your funny travel sweatshirts official notification/warning/reminder: I'm out of office/gone fishin'/living my best life and will be back whenever I feel like it.

There's No Comfort Like Escaping

Sometimes, the best/ideal/perfect escape isn't a place/location/spot at all. It's a state of mind/feeling/perception. My happy place/moment/time is anywhere but here, a whimsical/fantastical/imaginary realm where stress/tension/worry melts away/into oblivion/like ice cream on a hot day. I picture mountains covered in snow filled with the scent of fresh-baked cookies, where nothing but joy exists. It's not about reality/escaping from life/finding perfection, it's about creating a sanctuary/building an oasis/dreaming big and letting that vision/imagination/fantasy fuel my spirit/soul/inner self.

Heads Up: Might Start Gushing About Trips

I'm a total travel lover, and sometimes my thoughts just wanders to amazing destinations. So, be warned: you might find me suddenly discussing about my upcoming trips. I apologize in advance if it happens during a important conversation, but I just get so passionate about travel!
