2. The international flirting market really opens up.
3. Having the comfy hotel bed alllllll to yourself.
4. Drink a cup of authentic Sri Lankan coffee, stare into space, zone out and call it meditation.
5. You make your OWN plan!
6. If you want to spend your last remaining brain cell going on the Constrictor water slide at Waterbom Water Park one more time—who’s going to stop you?
