Off time Staycation

From today I’ll be off work for four weeks. Four weeks of rest and recreation. Four weeks of spending time in the archipelago of Stockholm, enjoying starlit nights, fishing, renovating, cooking, writing, fireplace gazing, and just relaxing. I’ve been working a lot over the past year and planned to do some traveling during my time off but I realized it would be counterproductive since I tend to do a lot of nonresting things while I travel and my body is now telling me to rest. So here I am, with four weeks ahead of me and I just canceled my flights and accommodations. I am actually glad I did that. I am going to see my family, though. But they are only two hours away so it’s not a huge thing. Also, there’s nothing wrong with being a little spoiled by beloved parents. 🙂

I had planned to go to Spain (Canary islands and Barcelona) for a couple of weeks but those places will still be there for the next time I get time off and since I am currently looking to do other things, they might be destinations where I could do some of my future work. We just don’t know what the future holds for us. For now, I am very content with the no plans for the next month ahead.
