Stressed Out Tourist

Stressed Out Tourist
I realized the other day, people go on vacation because they are very stressed out, then need a vacation, they need to relax, the problem is this.

“A stressed out person in the USA, is a stressed out person on Vacation.”

There is no Geographical Cure, they bring the stress with them, they do not know how to relax, the brought the problem wtih them, they brought themselves.

Traveler versus Tourist, there is an incredible difference between a people on a six-month trip compared to a person on two week Vacation. The two week Vacation is just relocation of their work ethic, they plan, they work, they run, they are stressed.

I do not want to visit a resort full of stressed out people on Vacation. Stressed out people are not capable of relaxing, and walking slow, it is just an illusion.

I enjoy meeting my friends, I do not enjoy sharing their lives, I really have no desire to share the life of an American on Vacation, to live with severe stressful people trying to pretend they are relaxing.

If you are not relaxed in the USA, why would you be relaxed here, it would take them two years to change evolve away from their culture.

    Lately my girlfreind has much more stress in her life than I do (most hers is self created), but less than many tourists. It takes her most of a week to decompress to where she is not creating new stresses for herself. It would take her at least another week to become what I would call in vacation mode. It was not always like this.

    You state that it would take people two years to evolve/change. Some would, but some would never change. Their stress levels would actually increase until they went crazy then home. I doubt this would take more than 3 weeks for most. Maybe a couple weeks more if they had an unlimited budget.
