Because it's like a way to pay to maximize your time off

Staycations are way more relaxing, but are generally forgettable - a week can go by before you know it when you're just at home

A week in a different place where you cram in as many activities and experiences in as possible creates far more memories, so it feels longer

It's like retail therapy - a way to soothe that voice in the back of your head asking "is it really worth it to sell my life away like this?"

I like vacations that are a mix of your two descriptions: Go somewhere new, but with zero itinerary. I have the most fun that way, just organically figuring out stuff to do. Of course, still do some research ahead of time.

I think you've been vacationing wrong.
