Holidays are holidays and they don't have to have quite as much work in them and, the work can be quite different.
I always felt holidays were meant for having a lot of time to rest and chill but when experiencing them there's still this work that will definitely take our time to engage on while on holidays.
Yeah - I think they were more "chill" when younger, but now - it is just a different form of work - still, a change is as good as a holiday, they say :)
