As I mentioned a couple of days ago, I started to have THE ITCH to travel for quite a bit lately.

I love my job, don't get me wrong, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get any time off right now or in about a month. Having a workaholic for your boss is not the greatest thing because he expects the same ethusiasm from everyone else. Like for example, he comes to the office on weekends, holidays, sometimes stays up to 12 hours a day and generally driving everyone crazy with his presence. He's a good boss, always up to a good debate, quite well-travelled and cosmopolitan, but sometimes I just wish he'd give us a freaking break.

That said, I still have the itch. I am longing to get the pack from under my bed, book a flight and go some place outside boring old Slovenia. Some place nice and warm. I spoke to my team leader today and she opened up a possibility for a prolonged weekend off sometime in February, which would be VERY nice right now but we'll see.

Actually late February could be perfect. I have an old debt to pay off with January paycheck, so I wouldn't have enough money this month. BUT 2 months also gives me a good chance of finally persuading my bank to grant me a credit card and it's not too far away ... Hehe, I'm already getting warmed up to the idea.

Just need to find a destination ... Maybe still Portugal?
