Do you have a dream vacation?
I’m not sure… What comes to mind when you say “vacation”? For me, it’s a few days or a week at the beach. My ideal getaway involves being near “big water.”
My father took my sister and me to Crimea every summer as a little girl. We lived in a tent on the beach for a month, which was common then. Entire towns of tents sprawled in popular vacation spots, and city dwellers would pitch tents by rivers, lakes, or the sea for after-work getaways.
