Half a year ago, it was pretty common to plan a double date with your favorite couple only to get rain checked because they were both down bad with the flu. When you spend all day and night with someone, share food and saliva, and constantly touch the same door handles, light switches, and Sriracha bottles, it's pretty much inevitable that you and your partner will get sick at the same time. While certainly not always fun, it can be an experience that brings a couple closer together. Sharing bowls of hot soup, staying home from work together, complaining about symptoms, and keeping one another on schedule with medications garners a sense of comradely with your partner. And when you finally make it through to the end, it feels as if you are reborn together.
But some illnesses are harder to recover from. In particular, there is an illness that hits right around summer time. Some symptoms include insomnia (from watching travel documentaries), dry eyes (from scrolling through European tour itineraries), a sore throat (from trying to convince your partner that you have enough money saved), and an unquenchable thirst (for adventure)! They call it the travel bug, wanderlust, or itchy feet. If you have any of these symptoms, start planning now, because unfortunately, the only cure for this illness might just be to get out of town for a bit!
