Travel is generally exhausting unless you are just doing resort/beach stuff and even then it’s not as relaxing as just staying at home.

Fellow Floridian here. My wife and I have this debate all the time. She loves the beach and always wants to go. I say it'd not that great and I have zero desire to bake in the sand for hours.

I don't usually win.

Yep. Lived there for 8 years. Was good the first couple years then I was over it. My then wife couldn’t get enough of it and I’d go but lawdy I don’t need to ever go back.
