Welcome to another exciting episode of The Wealth of Geeks Podcast! In this episode our amazing host Sarah Gilliland is joined by two incredible writers, Stephanie Gravalese and Margarita Ibbott, to discuss the topic of staycations versus vacations.
Stephanie defines a staycation as a period in which an individual or family stays home and participates in leisure activities within a day-trip distance from home without requiring overnight accommodations. She highlights the economic and climate-friendly benefits of staycations, citing a growing industry with global revenue expected to be $363.6 million by the end of 2023.
Stephanie emphasizes that staycations provide a way for people to explore their local area and save money.
On the other hand, Margarita defines a vacation as a destination that is not one's hometown and emphasizes the need to get away from everything and relax. She prefers to go to a completely different destination and do a variety of things.
The debate between the two writers centers on whether it is better to stay local and save money or to get away and relax.
