Need a mid-year break?

The Easter holidays came very early this year so if you’re heading towards the middle of the year feeling ragged already then it’s no wonder! The push to mid‐year is stressful enough but what lies on the other side of the mid‐year bump is even more intense.

Stress levels start to spike, road rage incidents are on the increase, managers who were previously understanding and supportive are becoming impatient and short‐tempered and you’re not feeling yourself either. Your family life starts to suffer, the flu bug gets hold of you and you’re not quite sure you’re going to make it. All very good reasons you should be planning a mid‐year break. It doesn’t have to be a long break. A quick getaway to reset your equilibrium and your family’s is really all you need.

WorldVentures has some ideas on how you can relax on one of their DreamTrip holidays – hassle free as they do all the work for you because there really isn’t any point in planning a holiday when it’s as stressful as getting through a day’s work.

Rest with the beasts of Africa:

On this DreamTrip to Zimbabwe, you’ll be staying in Antelope Park, an area dedicated to the conservation of African lions. Walk alongside these majestic big cats through the Zimbabwe bush, then watch from close by as the pride rushes toward a pile of meat, their deep roars rumbling and vibrating the ground as they feast.

Doing it Island Style:

Island hopping in the Seychelles aboard a 21‐cabin motor yacht Pegasus. Winter blues can really get the better of you when it gets cold in South Africa, why not pop across to the beautiful tropical islands in the warm Indian ocean to revive yourself.
