I go away to have a complete break from work and the drudgery of "normal" life. Since the children left home, I prefer to go out of the peak time when many places are populated with loads of young families - but then I would hate to lie on a beach or by a swimming pool for a week or two. I've tried to go around May and/or September-October to miss the crowds but still have a chance of reasonable weather. I prefer to take a city break and explore somewhere interesting such as New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Berlin, Vancouver, Dundee.
This year with the restrictions in place due to the ever-present threat of covid, I have a feeling that I won't be going anywhere abroad. Was hoping to do a Christmas Market with younger daughter again since we missed out last year due to covid, but at the moment it also looks highly unlikely - was aiming for Berlin twice this year, Festival of Light in September then the Christmas Markets in December.... maybe at the end of 2022?
