Freedom, I Won't Let You Down

[dotinthesky]

I'm about to go on holiday! I've taken a week off though I'm not sure if I'm going anywhere. I'm definitely not getting in a plane as my boyfriend really doesn't like them (neither do I, to be honest.)

What I'm sure: I'll be off email, social networks and my mobile phone for the whole time. I want a complete digital break (though I reserve the right to playing a bit of Wii if I get bored of my books and letter writing!)

The last time I went off the grid was during a week in Crete a few years ago with king_prawn neenaw and wink_martindale It was momentarily interrupted when NeeNaw's mom called to announce Wacko Jacko had died.

What to do with my spare time? Day trips outside of London? Horror and sci-fi novels? The local pool? Zombies, Run? Sleep? Creative Writing? Perhaps a few nights in a B&B? Art exhibitions?

Going with the flow.

What an excellent plan. I always found holidays in Greece were a good time to do that, but everywhere's got wifi now and the temptation's too great - I used to get through a book a day but only did one when I was in Rhodes last week.

Have a great time whatever you do!

It is nice to be out of the grid from time to time.
I do it every summer when I visit my mother in Vigo. No internet means much more time to myself, oddly enough…
I wonder how much of the time we spend in the web is really useful time…

That sounds rather blissful; enjoy!
But before you go off the grid, I'll be in the UK for a week from next Thursday; hoping you'll be around?

If you don't want to fly, why don't you take the train to europe? See some other euro countries?
