It's true: your hangover is less severe on vacation

Nice, those days that are so long that you forget times and days, but because of that you suddenly find yourself on Tuesday at two o'clock fully into the white wine. Oops.

Vacation is wonderful because everything you don't do at home suddenly is allowed by yourself. Breakfast with brie and white baguette with Nutella. Lunching with a pitcher of sangria on the table. Sleeping in. Going to bed early. Staying up late. Everything you feel like doing is allowed, under the pretext: it's vacation now. And that relaxed feeling creates the necessary thirst: you don't have to do anything. And not tomorrow either. Bring on that rosé.

Fortunately for every vacationer: your hangover is really less bad on vacation than at home. Here's why. You have zero obligations, except for that daily dip in the pool, and that makes a difference. You can sleep longer if you want, which saves you half of your headache. Besides, you're rested, so you can handle more physically. You have nothing on your mind and you're recharged. No worries, no appointments. That splash in the pool or that cooling off in the sea also provides a fresh feeling and before you know it, you already have a hearty lunch in your belly. Eating a lot, that helps against that miserable hangover. On vacation, you have more time for extensive breakfasts and lunches, and that helps. Goodbye nausea. Cola on the side, three courses in, and off you go to the happy hour. Just like the day before.

What really helps is eating fatty fish. And let's do that more at the beach. Especially salmon is a good idea if you're in the mood for a toast. Drink plenty of water and well, it can hardly go wrong then. No sluggish day on the couch: swimming, sunbathing, and eating. And you're as good as new. Oh, and one more tip: coconut water is very good if you have a bit of a hangover . It also makes your Insta feed look nice again. Bartender, how about it?
