Why would I? I can bet on anyone to give me just one reason
to return to life from a beautiful vacation. If I had unlimited money, I would
have never returned home. Many other social obligations push me to return home,
but I would never do that if I had a choice. Nonetheless, there is no use
living a fictional life and I have to join back regular things as soon as I
come back. The worst thing about coming from a fantastic vacation is the
fatigue that I cannot bear. However, I have learned techniques to bear the
exhaustion over time.
Sleep, sleep, and
sleep
I just love sleeping. I can sleep for many days with minimal
eating without bothering anyone, but it bothers other people that I sleep so
much. My family would keep asking me if I want to eat some food. Initially, it
would irritate me that they poke me so much, but now I understand their
concern. Over time, they have also understood that I just need to sleep as much
as I want after a vacation. Things do become tiring when you are out of the
town with or without family. Mom and dad have a habit of sleeping for only an
hour extra if they feel tired of traveling too much, but they let me take a
long slumber now.
A great siesta works for almost every ailment in my body. If
I feel feverish, I sleep. If I feel low on energy, I sleep. If my stomach is
upset, I just sleep. Perfect cure for every minor ailment. I always tell my
parents that I can cure myself without any money. Just give me a bed and a cozy
blanket, and I am good to go. So I just take an extra day from my holidays for
travel, return a day before joining office, and just die for the world. No
wonder I wake up refreshed the next day, even though it feels frustrating to go
to office.
Eat light
Homemade light food is the best when it comes to curing my
heavily loaded stomach. Usually when I travel, I eat a lot of junk food,
unintentionally most of the times. I cannot help but eat whatever comes my way,
of course because I cannot expect too much of healthy food on the go. That is
why; when I come home, I prepares soups and lentils for myself and have them
for a day or two.
On my last trip, I was there with my friends and we had
hired best Self-Drive Cars in Hyderabad for our road trip. We ate as much of junk food as we could
while taking stops on the highway for local food. Although I could not find the
chicken biryani I was looking for, I did taste a lot of other heavy
non-vegetarian foods. And when I came home, all I ate was porridge and khichdi
and they rejuvenated me like anything.
Nonetheless, vacations are awesome, but they give a huge
setback when it comes to getting back to routine. I still bear the pain
bravely! Wink!
