Love posts like this lol, how is anyone supposed to give a remotely useful answer with zero information from you. You mentioned southwest Asia and sub-Saharan Africa - those couldn’t be more different vacations. If you tell us what things you’re interested in it will be much easier to give advice

Maldives or Bora Bora

Kenya/Tanzania for an incredible safari

I would go to Lisbon, Portugal if I were going in November

We did a private island in the Caribbean. After exploring a lot of the same options you are, to us it came down to the best place we could afford that would guarantee no children, and as few other people as possible. We realized after all the planning and work travel, we just wanted peace and total solitude.

We just flew Delta from DC to Cabo for a honeymoon. I would totally recommend it. The weather is amazing. All the resorts are only 50% booked because of Covid (not sure about next November). And November is the beginning of whale season so you can go on an excursion and see them.

I had a big post-bar trip planned traveling and originally planned to comeback Sept. 15th. My lawfirm told me that the start date was Sept. 19th in may to plan trips. We just got an email last week there was a mistake and the firm said they made a mistake and the start date is now the 12th. I asked for flexibility and I got a response that there is none. I will be out a few hundred dollars almost 1K and a big dent in the trip now. Should I keep pushing or should I just count my losses and fold.

Is it a good idea to tell your manager intentions of leaving?

Recently had my review and it didn’t go how I expected. No raise, no promotion. I expressed disappointment but took the criticism I was given to reach my goal in 6 months or a year.

However, there are a number of issues that bother me enough where I want to move on.

The team I am on is small and I know that when I leave, they’ll have a lot on their hands. I only have a couple of interviews scheduled and nothing is solid yet.
