"London PR Professional Balances Work and Play with Generous Vacation Time"

A 25-year-old social media worker in London enjoys a generous vacation policy, with 28 paid vacation days per year, mental health days, birthdays off, a day off for every year worked, and a two-week break during the winter holidays. She emphasizes the importance of work-life balance and mental health, stating that there is nothing so urgent that cannot be handled by someone else when she is off. Her company encourages employees to take time off and coordinate holidays to avoid overwhelming workloads. While some young workers in the US struggle with vacation guilt and affordability, she finds ways to make travel more affordable, such as working remotely in cheaper destinations. She believes that shorter breaks and exposure to different cultures are vital for personal growth and broadening the mind.
