You NEED a Tropical Vacation
Don’t we all?
A new study found that an astonishing 94% of Americans are missing travel right now.
Scrolling wistfully through photos and social media posts about pre-pandemic travels, joining groups to plan future trips — has the pandemic reinforced that travel isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity? The science behind why people have missed traveling.
Travel is no longer just about going somewhere. Coming out of such a long hiatus, 2022 will be the year we wring every bit of richness and meaning out of our experiences.
I’ve written extensively about travel, about prioritizing experiences over things, about taking your kids everywhere and rediscovering the world through their eyes. Heck, as a coach, I’ve even recommended that you live life like you’re on vacation.
And I’ve shared my recipe for a perfect Hawaiian vacation with all my friends, but do you know what I haven’t done? I have shared the perfect tropical vacation pack list.
It’s time because my parents leave for Hawaii on Friday, and my mom asked me to share my list. So here goes.
Have the best time ever, mom and dad! Enjoy the sun, each other, and a brief reprieve from real life. Love you!
