Personally. I don't consider it a vacation until I'm cut off from everyone and everything. Let me relax in peace for a while, without distractions.

[–] TheFunkyMonk@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For real. This is the primary feature of vacation.

Spitting facts right there

Hell my favorite places to go hiking don't even have cell service

I love taking a motorcycle up to the Radio Quiet Zone in VA and WV. There ain't shit up there and no one can get in touch with me for days.

Just slowly cruising through the mountains and disconnected in a way that I haven't been since before my first work cell phone.

It truly is bliss being disconnected from everything every now and then

No Internet, no phone calls, no texts, nothing.

Being truly disconnected from the world at large.

If people need me, they can wait until I get back from my hike or my vacation as I'm truly unreachable unless someone hikes out there too.

That's exactly why I'm taking my first cruise this year, and I'll be damn sure that the Wi-Fi doesn't work

Oh don't worry, you won't have to try to break the wifi.
