Together with my friends, after the end of the summer session, we wanted to go on vacation together before the next semester. As soon as I thought about it, I had a trip to Masuria or the Polish sea in my head. After all, students will not be able to afford some exclusive vacation. But what I didn’t expect was how wrong I was.
As soon as it was time to plan our trip, my eyes nearly popped out in horror. Friends talked about going to Mallorca, Ibiza or even Bali. It would not have occurred to me that the average student could afford such a vacation, especially since none of them work. We checked the prices of such a trip in several offices and the costs for a week were 5/6 thousand without food, I thought that after that they would give up this idea and choose a trip to Masuria. I even asked how they wanted to pay for it all. It turned out that their parents and grandparents want to make them a small gift at the end of the academic year. “Little gift”…
I don’t know if I’m exaggerating, I know that the prices of holidays increase drastically from year to year, but don’t exaggerate – you don’t have to spend your salary from two months to a week’s holiday. Unfortunately, because none of them have to worry about the costs, they do not notice the problem. For me, such a trip means two months of hard work, and it wouldn’t be enough anyway, because somehow you still have to pay for an apartment in Warsaw.
I have no idea how to tell them about it, I’m just ashamed that I can’t afford what they have. I would love to go with them, but due to financial issues I have no chance. And whenever he proposes something else, they laugh that who would want to go on holiday to Poland when they have the choice of traveling abroad.
