The May holiday seems to be the new summer holiday, as more and more people in the Netherlands choose to stay home during the summer and instead go out longer and further in May due to rising temperatures. I hear literally everyone around me leaving for Bali, Thailand, or South Africa as if it’s the most normal thing in the world. Perhaps it also plays a role that traveling during the May holiday is a bit friendlier on the wallet, or that we feel deep down that flying will only get more expensive this summer due to rising oil and kerosene prices. In any case, for everyone who wants to go but has no idea where to, I have good news, because based on your zodiac sign, there is always a destination that perfectly suits you.
