I am not trying to say that seeing loved ones isn’t a holiday, but whether you live in the same city/country or on the other side of the world, visiting family and friends can come with certain expectations." I totally get that. Enjoy your break!

I love visiting family and friends in the UK (and my husband's in the US), but yes, the expectations. No way around them and for me there is always that creeping sense that I am not meeting them 'very well' somehow?

Anyway, thank you!

Wishing you a swift recovery and a great holiday. And it's fine, I haven't had a holiday in 8 years. 😆

Phew 8 years!

Not sure why I’m so fixated on it in some respects!

Take care, Sarah, and I hope you will be back in much better shape.

Thank you - the break might also help me plan my next break... Japan, perhaps? ;)
