Tourism Australia reckons you need a holiday. Of course there are economic reasons why they'd like you to pack your bags for the great Aussie adventure but there are many more health reasons!
A recent study estimated that Australians have 123 million days of annual leave accrued to full time employees. Apparently one in four workers stockpile their holiday leave resulting in over-worked, unmotivated and exhausted employees!
A British study suggests even planning a future holiday increases happiness and well-being and once you actually hit the road your mood improves, tension decreases, your energy levels increase and you're generally much happier with family, your economic situation and health!
I can definitely vouch for these findings. In my experience every aspect of our lives improved once we hit the road. We even quit smoking on our trip, which is much easier when changing your daily routine and social habits (and when you have to be tighter with the dollars). I can even say we avoided the post holiday blues by travelling until we were sick of it and ready to come home; although it took nearly two years!
You are entitled to holidays and leave, and you will be far more productive if you take regular breaks. If you have saved up quite a bit of leave or your ready for long service then you are in the perfect position to go on an extended road trip!
We sometimes forget that health, happiness and family should be our greatest priority. It's true that slaving your guts out in the quest for money is usually at the detriment of these important things!
Hit the road Jack :)
Yes. I entirely agree with you that road trip is the best if you want to enjoy every minute of your vacation out doors. And what else can be a better option that hiring the services of caravan.
