Humans weren’t meant for just seating in one place for too long, they were meant for adventure. You know who you are, (yes you) sitting there in your cubicle with one eye on the “to do†pile and the other on travelocity.com. The desk is plastered with brochures from exotic locations and your computer wallpaper is a photo of your favorite beach.
When a co-worker returns from vacation, you’re the first to start the Q&A session. Sound familiar? You may be suffering from Travel Separation Anxiety. 😀
It doesn’t matter were you’re in the world, being chained to a desk is tough when you want to trade the suit for a suitcase. It seems everyone is out traversing the globe while you pine away in the office.
You’re maybe saying to yourself “I can’t afford to go a vacation now†that’s maybe the same thing you said two years ago. Whether it’s financial or personal commitments that keep you grounded, your inner adventurer doesn’t have to become a casualty of the office cube. Keep the dream alive by planning your ME TIME or E.S.C.A.P.E.
E-stimate
Map out your ultimate game plan.
S-ave
With a budget in place, it’s time to watch the savings grow.
C-ut Corners
Finding money to feed your hungry savings account can be tricky. Take a look at where you spend your money.
A-ppease The Travel Gods
All travel planning and no fun make Jack (and you) a dull boy. Exercise your travel skills by noticing adventure in your own backyard.
P–repare
Time passes quickly! Don’t let your travel plans falter because of poor planning on your part. Make a list of things that require preparation. Check your destination for visa and immunization requirements.
E-liminate Doubt
Chances are good that someone (or everyone!) will come up with some reasons why you should put your travel plans on hold. But the only person you need to impress is yourself. Trust your desires and abilities to see your travel adventures come true.
So, office-magnets, there it is, your very own escape plan from the desk to the destination.
