How do you fill your time off work?

My work is encouraging me to use my holiday days, which I haven't touched all year, but I'm not too keen.
I've structured my weekly routine around my job, and without it there I don't know what I'll do all day. Weekends I can handle, since they're just two days, but a whole week off work? I'm liable to sit around getting sad because my hobbies only take up so much time, and then when I do go back to work I'll struggle to get back into the swing of things.

Does anyone else dread taking time off work? And if so, how do you deal with it?

  • I find it difficult to change between work routine and non work days. I look forward to days off for a rest then often don't make the most of it.

    I find it helps if the weather is fine so I can go for walks. The best time off work I have had is when I have taken two weeks off. It gives time to unwind and enjoy watching TV just to chill out.
