Taking A Vacation: Luxury Or Necessity?

I agree with you Bimbliss. In fact I am seriously looking forward to my vacation so that I can have more time with my husband & children.

True that. See the world, people, places. Be adventurous. You never know what or who you'd meet.

Right now, I am on vacation, outside Nigeria.
I agree there are lots of nice places in Nigeria, and even in Africa. Each serves different purpose. You don't need to go outside Nigeria if you don't have the resources, but you can actually go to Cotonou, Togo, or even Ghana. Always nice to see another country, other people, experience how they live, etc. It's an education in itself.
Since I have a young family, this is my first family vacation. I don't plan to do this in another 4-5 years.
That you need a vacation is without question. This particular one we saved for, and planned for.
