5 Reasons We Go On Vacations

Is it really to relax or take a picture for your Insta?

1. To Say You Went There

It seems as if going on a vacation (or many) is a norm, however, is it truly for your well being? Yes, you get to 'relax' (or maybe stress the **** out trying to do just about anything and everything), but in the end, you just wanna brag...no matter how long ago it was. "Yeah, I went to Dubai 5 Years ago, it was awesome!"

2. To Post Pictures to Instagram

Ah, the perfect Instagram picture. You go through the hundreds of pictures you took to post that one that you hope gets you a ton of likes (admit it, likes make you feel good), don't forget to add an inspirational quote! Lastly, we post a picture or two every couple of months as a #tbt because hey...you can!

3. Everyone Else is Doing it

When anyone and everyone is going to Thailand and posting pictures...obviously that means you have to too! So jump on the vacation bandwagon and hit up all of the insta-worthy spots! I mean, do you want FOMO? (I didn't think so)

4. To Party Like A Rockstar

You're stressed out and in need of a break, so you plan a vacation. After days of buffets, laying on the beach, raving, and repeat...the regret kicks. You come home feeling like a champ, and then you realize you have a bank balance of -$50254002. But hey, wasn't it worth it?

5. Most Important of All...

We go for the experience. Yes, we're in dire need of vacations to relax, to party, to take pictures, and post to social media about it, but in all, it's an experience. You go to experience a culture, make social connections, or to just lay on the beach all day - in the end, everyone has their own unique experiences.
