I take about 3-5 weeks of vacation a year + our 14 company holidays.

I typically do one big road trip for ~2 weeks and then a week randomly through the year plus random days fishing, doings tuff with kids or just taking a break from work.

I could never do that having to accrue

You could if you lived in Europe, where you must get at least four weeks minimum vacation per year (plus public holidays).

I wouldn't mind living in Europe... But i feel like i missed that boat. I'm in my mid 40s.. not sure what options there are.
