As August stated...vacation time is handled differently here. We get 1 week a year. As you pass through the years at your company, you get additional weeks. However, most frown on taking these vacation weeks in a row. At least from my experience. I see that Europeans enjoy 3-4 weeks off. That allows a lot of time to travel. Think about it. One week to travel Europe? Sure, at least two days of travel on both ends leave very little time in between to actually visit the place. One needs at least 2 weeks to make a decent trip of it. I would love to visit England but 3-4 days visit does not do it justice. Also, some people just don't fly. My wife will not fly...period! Then there is cost. Furthermore, I wish to travel America first before I go to a foreign country. There is a lot to see and do here. There are a plethora of things keeping Americans from traveling to other countries.
This is just crazy:
