Stay at home or visit a new place? Where am I going this week?

When I was working full-time in a hotel in Bali a few years ago. This question was always on my mind. I have a different day off than the normal employee.

When people’s day off is a weekend. My day off falls on a weekday. One thing I love about it was that I can visit many places without waiting in a line full of people. Because most of the time these places are crowded on weekends.

I love a quiet place. Especially if it has a beautiful view and is close to nature. Not always, but I enjoy my time there. The atmosphere and the scenery can help calm and inspire my mind.

Even though I love my routine activities. But sometimes, when I am off, I make a few exceptions to that pattern. That helps me think outside the box and find a new perspective.
