Loved chatting with you too! 😉 this was a fascinating read, especially as someone from another country who ditched a well paid job to be a writer! Good luck to this person!

Coming back from vacay is so rough – especially in December! This year, I started taking an extra day off after I arrive home to deal with all the unpacking, laundry, decompressing. If you can swing another day, it's a game changer!

Yes! Such a good idea! Generally I try to come home on Saturday so I have Sunday to recover. Also, my prof moved up the final exam deadline AFTER I booked the trip! Ugh!

Love the idea of spending breakdowns of people’s vacations/trips!

The fact that their partner is making $350,000 with a take home of 10K plus is just baffling. Why did I decide to teach again?! When my son is older- I’m definitely encouraging him to keep his passions and his means of work separate!
