Plan A Baecation: Why You Should Travel With Your Boo

2016 crept up on us quite quickly. By now you
should have been thinking about how you plan to
spend these 366 days. If you're like me, you love
traveling. Something about being away from
home brings about a certain level of peace. If
you're like me, you probably put "Travel More" on
your vision board a million times. Why not plan
something special with you and your boo so you
can be at "peace" together?
There are a lot of advantages to taking a
baecation. Let's begin with the obvious,
vacationing together allows you an opportunity to
get to know each other better . It doesn't matter if
you've known someone all of their life, you can
always learn something new. Traveling as a
couple, in most cases, brings you closer because
it forces you to spend time with each other. The
bonding that happens during a baecation is
unmatched. No kids, no work, no distractions,
just you and your love in an unfamiliar
environment, relying on each other for human
interaction. A lot of vacation destinations even
offer couples only resorts and activities. I've
found that sex outside of the home is often better
too. I'm sure that can be scientifically proven
somewhere.
Vacationing with your mate also brings lasting
memories ; something we take for granted while
we're working 50 hour weeks. You can always
remember your first time. Your first time
swimming, your first time eating sushi, the first
time you had sex, we always remember. Why not
share some 'firsts' with the love of your life? Do
something you've never done before with someone
you care about. How about treating them to
something they've never done before? The
stresses of our every day life cause us to forget
that life should be about memories and
experiences. We are so caught up in the
humdrum, predictable schedules that we have,
that we aren't taking a moment to actually treat
ourselves to some of the amazing wonders of the
world. Consider vacation destinations that neither
of you have been to. Consider trying new foods
or taking a class together. Never been snorkeling?
Now's the time to try. The laughs, the tears, the
experiences are something no one can ever take
away from you.
Lastly, if you're ever questioning whether you
should stay in your relationship or not, a vacation
will open your eyes. Often times vacationing with
your boo will open your eyes to who they truly
are. Sometimes, who they truly are, is someone
you don't want to be with. Have you ever gone
out of town with someone to find out that they
are cheap, irresponsible and inconsiderate? I have
and let me tell you, it was quite the eye openers.
Taking someone out of their element allows them
to let their guard down and somehow they
manage to show you who they really are. You
should consider this the next time you are having
second thoughts about being with someone.
Worst case scenario, they're not who you need to
be with, but at least you got a trip out of it.
So when you're making those vacation plans for
the year, consider bringing your mate on a couple.
A good baecation in 2016 will make for an
awesome 2017.
