Post-holiday survival tips
September has arrived. It's here. Stealthy, he has caught us off guard again, entertained as we were posing for Instagram, tasting mojitos everywhere or lost on the most remote beach of the farthest island that we could reach in that Asian archipelago.
That we are not able to process that the crowd that surrounded us this morning was not the queue to order a Tinto de Verano at the beach bar, but that of the subway at rush hour does not mean that it is not happening.
The routine is here, and you have two options: take refuge under that gray cloud that you drag over your head and deliberately lock the computer by typing the password wrong three times; or, conversely, assume it and hold on to those little tricks that make the return more bearable.
What tricks? Ours, those of the editorial office of Condé Nast Traveler. Because being experts at leaving all the time inevitably goes hand in hand with being experts at constantly coming back. And yes, these days are also hard for us (there are some rare birds that wanted to come back), but we got through them between good restaurants, better beers and, of course, with new travel plans on the horizon. This is how we survive post-holiday depression.
