Should I stay, or should I go?
If I go there will be trouble
And if I stay it will be double.
Do these lyrics from The Clash sound a little like the questions spinning in your head when you think about where you will be for the holiday season?
If you go – you max your credit cards and pull your kids through through multiple continents and timezones.
If you stay – you save money and stress, but your family will be crushed, and you will miss out on your local traditions.
When you are faced with staying put for the holiday season, or making the long haul to loved ones abroad, you might be struggling with this same question.
