Recharge your mind
by: Anne O'Connell (10 January 2018)Do you remember the days when, no sooner had Father Christmas scooted back up the chimney, television advertisements from package holiday companies did their best to elbow out those for interminable sofa sales? It seems natural that we should turn our minds to sun and sand while the nights remain long and the days chilly at best.
It's not as simple as that though, is it? Finances are pinched after the excess of Christmas, and work and family commitments may prevent you getting away from it all. But even if you can't start planning for an actual holiday, there's nothing to stop you from sending your mind away on an odyssey.
As well as looking at travel guides and blogs, I like to read fiction set in a place I have been to or want to visit – it helps to get under its surface and fire my imagination. To take a step further, try listening to an audio guide. As well as learning a little history, you may get to hear the everyday sounds of the place – church bells, market traders, local greetings.
So whether you're stuck at home and reading to escape, or in full-scale planning mode for a journey away from a long winter, get your head there now!

An error has occurred in script /home/writeit/public_html/config1.inc on line 9: strtotime(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone.
