Many of us have dreams to see the world and experience new cultures, and some just simply need to take a break from the grad school grind. But with the pressure to devote all of our time and energy to our studies and research, as well as the financial barriers to travelling, it can be difficult to give ourselves permission to take time off for a personal vacation.
This week, join the Stronger Together community to explore how to take a personal vacation (and get your advisor on board!) during graduate school. Note that a personal vacation doesn’t have to require travelling on a plane - you can recreate a destination vacation right at home!
Sign up to our Stronger Together section here to take part in this week's module: Personal Vacations.
