Welcome to Vacation Ideas!

Vacation is a term used in English-speaking North America to describe a lengthy time away from work or school, a trip abroad or simply a pleasure trip away from home such as a trip to the beach or a National Park or Historical landmark.  The practice of going on or taking vacations is common all over the world.  Before vacation time arrives it is always nice to have a vacation idea and/or vacation plans.  

Vacation Ideas is an excellent source for unbiased reviews of vacation destinations and vacation resources such as hotels, resorts, restaurants as well as offering visitors many helpful travel tips.  Bookmark Vacation Ideas here:  Click here to add this page to your favorites

Most countries around the world have labor laws mandating a certain number of days of time off per year to be given to a worker for vacation.  It is also common to "dream" about your vacation before it arrives.  Vacation Ideas is a one-stop resource to help you put those dreams together into a plan before your actual time off arrives.  In Canada the legal minimum is two weeks.  In most of Europe the limit is higher.  The U.S. and China do not require employees receive any vacation time at all.  There are movements fighting for laws requiring more vacation time for American workers.

In modern employment practice, vacation days are often coupled with sick leave, official holidays and sometimes personal days.   Bookmark Vacation Ideas here:  Click here to add this page to your favorites
