Best honeymoon locations? Currently thinking Egypt, Japan, or Tanzania, but don’t want to spend too much after a pricey wedding. What something with natural beauty but my fiancé and I love adventures so not something where we just sit on the beach. Want a mixture of romantic but also lots to do, see, learn

My husband and I just went to Greece in September and I CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK. We were there two weeks and toured several islands (Naxos, Amorgos, Paros) and Athens. It was amazing. I can't wait to go back someday. So much to do and see, plus relaxing beach days if you want to chill.

Honeymooning there too! All tips appreciated.

Japan was my top option but we ultimately did decide on a “beach” trip and are going elsewhere. If we wanted an adventure, Japan would have been AMAZING so that’s my vote!

My parents went to Australia and New Zealand for their honeymoon way back when and they still talk about it!! They got a van and traveled around.

I wanted South Africa (Capetown) for the same reasons as you, but ruled it out since it’s winter there when we’ll be on our honeymoon. But if the timing is right for you, I’d look into it. Has beaches, safari, wine country, city, nature. Basically has everything to offer for romance and adventure and is supposed to be very affordable (aside from the flight to get there)

I am going there this summer and I am sooooooo excited.

Friend of mine went to Turkey for her honeymoon. At first I found it really odd as they originally were supposed to go to the Bahamas. However, their photos came back great. Low cost, plenty of culture and activities, and great food.

I’m not sure some of the country is equipped for tourists right now, but if OP is going later, they would probably appreciate the business.

Portugal- affordable less touristy compared to other eu areas. Madeira specifically is breathtaking

Don’t go to Egypt or Tanzania for those..

Why not Tanzania?

Omg do Tanzania for sure! Europe is always great for a honeymoon, you could do Portugal as well, or some place like Croatia? But tbh, Tanzania sounds amazing

WFH Vs WF Office Vs Hybrid, Which one should you take?
If you are fresher, go for a WF Office setup. You will learn things beyond your work. In the initial phase of of your career, one needs to focus more on learning than on comfort. The interactions at office, meeting with collegues, conversations at the cafeteria, sense of responsibilty, the need to walk up on time to reach office etc will shape you for better.

Once you have a work experience of few year then any setup is fine. Go for WFH.
