why do you take only 5 days😂😂 bro you gonna leave the firm, just take all you have left, don’t care what others say
Highly recommend Croatia. Best spot to decompress after banking stint.
Camino in Portugal
Cancun was good for me haha
Hey man, studied abroad in Portugal and I highly recommend it. Lisbon would be a great place to start and it’s fairly cheap as well. PM if you want recs and enjoy the PTO wherever you go!
Go to the keys and catch a tarpon
Medellin.
Dubai by the beach overlooking straight of Hormuz
There's a cool subreddit for solo traveling it has tons of good ideas. Japan is a example of a place that is maybe a good place to do solo travel, just one idea.
live at willy T in the BVI for a week. good time
Second pace is the soggy dollar bar on Jost van dyke
Thailand or Vietnam.
Peru and Argentina are also underrated.
If you're on a budget just go to Maine
