Every couple deserves a romantic and intimate weekend away; it’s the kind of gesture that keeps giving long after you return home. It’s easy for partners to drift apart under the demands of daily life, whether at a job or school or in the pursuit of other interests. Spending some relaxing and fun time together is sure to ease tensions. Studies have proven that regular romantic getaways lead to a better quality of life. In addition, an overwhelming majority of respondents to a recent survey agreed that romantic getaways are a fabulous way to keep the spark alive in their relationship.
Nowadays, tourists spend more on travel, which helps their well-being.
