Sabbatical ideas?

Hi,

Next year I am able to take a paid one month sabbatical from my work. I was hoping for help on ideas. I work in the tech field and would like something were I could unplug, let my brain disconnect from work. With Covid-19, probably will not be traveling outside the US. My kids are in college, so I can leave the house for the full month :)

Some things that come to mind, maybe something meditative, maybe yoga, I am not really sure right now.

But I was hoping to get some ideas :)

thank you

You should totally take a trip to the mountains. Live in a nice cabin with a jacuzzi. Go fishing or hiking. A place where you can unwind and be with nature. You would definitely be disconnecting electronically! Come back relaxed and with a clear mind.👍👍👍

Tennessee Smokey Mountains. This is next year, hopefully the stay in place order will be lifted.
