I'd differ; I feel that a change in the weather, scenery, or food is good enough. Like going to a cold higher altitude area or to sunny beach cities. Unfortunately, such landscapes aren't anywhere close to me. Or like I got to try new food in Vietnam. Change it what makes it all fun, in my opinion? It does cost money, but I keep a vacation fund aside for so I can comfortably enjoy such brief luxuries.

I'm waiting to get the opportunity to do a _complete_ sabbatical. One day.

For me, going to a hotel an hour a way for one night has unexpectedly resulted in a lot of relaxation. The first such trip was not meant to be so relaxing but adding the hotel stay and having dinner at a fancy restaurant really broke us out of our routine.
