5 days.
minus a day to recover.
4 days.
and probablt about a day of planning.
3 days.

2 days out of 7.
basically you lose 70 perc of a week, to be physically somewhere else.
although sometimes my favorite part is reading a book on a plane. but id rather read it in the temecula library.[/quote]
The planning? We get to decide what new experiences we are going to have to get us out of the same old daily rut.
The trip out there? Get so see and meet all types of interesting people at the airport, on the plane, around town.
Sick on a trip? Hasn’t happened to us yet, though for awhile we did tend to be sick the day after returning. That hasn’t happened since we switched to healthy eating, maybe a coincidence I’m not sure.
Tired? Hell yeah but it’s only because we pack so much into each day that we’re exhausted when we get home. I make the most out of each trip, my wife has to tell me to slow down and let her sleep a bit. It’s not in my nature though.
I have to say I do miss my own bed when traveling, but it comes with the territory. All the new experiences, people, places, smells, sights…all worth it.
Not saying that our outlook is better than someone who doesn’t like to travel…just the way we feel about it.
