@george here is everything you need to know about spring break! I note at least one southern hemisphere country, Chile, which has a holiday period in September.
Where would I go? I can't afford to do anything. If I went anywhere, how could I enjoy a "vacation" amongst all that's going on. It's hard enough turning off the compassionate part of my brain for a few hours just to enjoy a video game.
I propose a poll about the geographic origin of followers. And by continents. Perhaps a different picture emerges than just the consideration of the Southern hemisphere. ;)
Okay, since @evan may assumes that a large part of his followers come from the US, I understand his reference to the Q&A that I should make a poll for his followers 😁.
So, my question to all who answer his beautiful surveys, where are you located?
I think part of it is that 'Spring Break' isn't really a thing here down under, at least not in the way it is in the US.
Here in New Zealand, our big school break is around Xmas time, where students have an extended break (typically a month or two, but it varies between schools), while between the 4 terms during the year there's a 2-week break.
Though for us working folks, we need to take time off etc etc, and who can afford to pay for a break in this economy? 😛
a large part might be that Easter is in Autumn in the South, there is no equivalent holiday in our Speing, which is in the run-up to the main holiday season anyway

•I'm a strong yes. I took three days last week when my kids were out of school to go to the Finger Lakes in NY.
The structure of this question seems to have thrown off a lot of people, especially those in the Southern hemisphere.
