When it comes to taking a relaxing vacation, I can’t think of many places in the continental United States that are better suited for a week of relaxation than Miami. I realize that there are some even more enjoyable destinations that are not located in the continental United States, but if you are looking for a destination that is easy to access and very reasonably priced, I don’t think you can go wrong with Miami.

During this summer, I decided that I needed a break from work, so I took my girlfriend with me down to Miami. As I mentioned in the title of this post, we stayed there for a week, and I can honestly say that I felt more relaxed during my trip than I can remember feeling at any point during the last four to five years. Although I would have preferred to stay in Miami, I knew that I had to get back to the real world and my job. Fortunately, because I had such a relaxing break from work, my productivity dramatically increased when I returned from Miami and got back into my daily routine.
