My colleague returns from her short trip to Vietnam with her husband.
For many years, they have been busy working and taking care of their 5 children.
Their children are grown, and have their own social life.
My colleague and her husband decide to re-ignite their romance and go for a trip without their children tagging along.
When I ask her about the trip, she says that it is very enjoyable.
I ask her about the places of interest, and whether she has any photos to show.
Do you want to guess her reply?
She does not visit anywhere at all. She stays all the time in the hotel with her husband.
I ask her how a holiday overseas can be so enjoyable when she stays in the hotel all the time.
She says that the weather is too hot, and they do not want to go out.
I wonder at the foolishness of such a mentality.
She might as well stay home with her husband, switch on the air conditioner, and order delivery. She can save on her air fare, and hotel accommodation.
She has a maid to do the housework, and her children are away at work or in school most of the time. They can just stay home and watch TV in their room.
It will be as good as staying in a hotel in a foreign land.
Since she does not have the desire to visit anywhere at all, staying home is definitely much cheaper.
If I were to spend the money on airfare, I would definitely go out and explore the city.
Even if the day is very hot, I can make the best use of a private vehicle with tour guide to bring me to all the places of interests.
I can just pay for a bucket of ice to keep the water cold.

LOL!
Your friend sure is funny.
Maybe she is too rich that she doesn't know what to do at home.
Spending the money for air ticket, accommodation and fares aren't cheap either.
Yes, I would agree that when you are on a foreign country, go out and explore the wonderful historical places, shopping centres and food.
Otherwise, just like you had mentioned, might as well stayed at home, turn of the air cond, watch a movie and order a take away.
