Sometimes we all just need a break, whether it is at work or in our busy social lives. If you work in an office you know how it is - you have had enough of staring at a computer screen, so at 10 o'clock, you head off to the break room for a cup of coffee, then join the rest of your workmates for the "five-minute quiz" (Pick your newspaper of choice here). Sometimes, you stretch this five minute quiz during your 10 minute smoko, out for a bit longer......Maybe the job is unappealing, too hard, too full-on, or just boring & repetitive. You just don't want to go back. You need the weekend to come so you can rest and reset. And sometimes a long weekend, or even a few weeks' holiday, just doesn't seem enough.......you need to escape what ails you.
We're not sure from where and when the idea came from, but an idea is just an idea until action is taken. So one day last year when Qantas Airlines announced a huge airfare sale to North America, it took one 15 minute conversation to decide ... we're ready to make a great escape ... to take an extended break. So off we go ... on our three month smoko! :-)
Follow us over the next three months to see what we get up to. We hope you enjoy it.
