Brits say “going on holiday” instead of “going on vacation” and it somehow sounds way more festive and healthy. What are we “vacating” anyway? The grind? There’s no positive element?

I think Americans in office environments like to understate anything positive that happens outside their work - marriage, having kids, going on holidays. Fear of being found out as not working hard enough or something
