A holiday is always a good idea.

At least until you say it out loud.

From that moment on, everyone has an opinion. About the place. The timing. The money. The luggage. The children.

We're Off to Relax is a darkly humorous, painfully familiar story about a family vacation that slowly but inevitably goes wrong. From packing chaos and airport stress to hotel room mysteries, sunbed wars, awkward dinners, and the quiet realization that relaxing is far more exhausting than working.

Told in short, sharp chapters, this book captures the small moments of travel panic we rarely talk about - the overthinking, the compromises, the silent breakdowns, and the desperate hope that tomorrow will be better.

This is not a travel guide. It's a survival guide.

For anyone who has ever needed a vacation after their vacation.
