Things have been getting to me lately. More than they should. The horrendous “dates”, confusing “non-dates”, work is really fucking me off and I’ve been feeling generally run down. I’ve realised it’s all coming down to a desperate need of some time off work. My manager and I fairly regularly don’t see eye to eye and he has an amazing knack for not being able to comprehend that people have a differing viewpoint to him and a delicate way with words that feels like a sledge hammer between the eyes at times. Today I had to hold myself back from unleashing a torrent of abuse.
I had a brief conversation with the director of the company (a small company of 7 of us) and floated the idea of a holiday. I have 3 weeks worth of holidays accrued but sadly there’s no convenient time to take them, nor do I have any money to go anywhere. It’s all feeling a touch overwhelming at the moment and I really do need a break. It’s looking like I might have to grab a 4 day weekend, but where to go?
Ideally, if it weren’t winter I’d pack up and go to River Island and camp nude and lie around for 4 days doing sweet bugger all, but that’s not really an option in this temperature. Any dirt cheap suggestions will be welcomed.
Don’t know, but if you here of anypplace, I’d like to know too. Work is driving me crazy, I also have to take a small break – company policy that you take 10 days straight at least once per year – just moved house after my 4 year relationship ended. But where to go in winter, especially as I live in Melbourne…good luck finding something.
We recently went to Bali. Cheasp fares on Jetstar, $89 there and $93 back. Stayed at a gay clothing optional resort for $54 per night including breakfast. It could be a good option and very cheap too. We ate at the night market with the locals and dinner for two including a bottle of iced tea each cost us the equivalent of $7. All up, the entire holiday, airfares, accommodation and spending cost us $1500 for two people for 11 days, and we did (and had) everything
Hi! Yóu mentioned a while back that you would love to have an Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue. My brother is getting mine for me on July 17 at the Mall of America in Minneapolis so he might get one for you if you can reserve it in your full name and then pay postage or whatever…details we cam work out later. I will look back later for your response!!! Thanks
Two other possibilities. There is a gay nudist section of Couchsurfers, and you can also try homearoundtheworld.com. Its a bit more upmarket than couchsurfers.
