Keeping a balance

It's holiday season time. Especially here in Oz, I have noticed that people make it a point to go away for the holidays (like maybe going on myrtle beach vacations). And I am not talking about one week leaves, but some take at least a month! Yes, that is how it is here. While work is important in our lives, I reckon it is also the culture here to put equal (if not more) importance in taking breaks. The work-life balance is considered essential in this part of the world, and I am all for it! It is just one of the reasons why I am loving it here.
