I get 30 days paid holiday per year. I could take all my holiday in one lump and spend 6 weeks travelling there and back. But I'd massively prefer to have more, shorter, holidays and not spend half my precious holiday time travelling.
And, obviously, I'm lucky. I work for a German company. When I worked in Australia the standard was 20 days, which makes a 10-day travelling time completely unworkable.
There are advantages to killing off bulk tourism, I'll agree. But I also don't think we want to go back to a world where only the idle rich get to travel.
- darkwater 4y agoNo, but I'd like to go towards a world where most people can and want to slow-travel (with more holidays, better train networks or electric planes doing 2h max flights)
