As much as we love being sociable on holiday, part of me craves the idea of being away, staying in a hut on the beach, and maybe not seeing anyone for days apart from Jamie and the boys.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have been determined for the past couple of years to move away from all those Holiday programmes.
I love holidays. It's such a wonderful time for the whole family to be together and not have to worry about schedules and that kind of thing.
During the holiday season, Christmas specifically, it can be hard to be away from family and friends.
Our life may look glamorous, but we scream at the kids, and I have to tell Jamie to tidy up if we have guests coming over.
I love out-of-the-way, rugged places. For me, holidays are about the experiences, and the people, and the memories, rather than sitting on a nice beach getting tanned. I try to plant myself where I am and embrace what is there in front of me.
Like all kids with divorced parents, I have an abundance of holidays.
Holidays are the best. I couldn't imagine being from a small family.
Contemplating Christmas when you are isolated and far from home brings its own unique pain.
I just love being around my family during the holidays.
After all, the best part of a holiday is perhaps not so much to be resting yourself, as to see all the other fellows busy working.
