DID YOU SPEND the dreary winter and mucky spring yearning for a sunny beach, a classic city jaunt, or an epic road trip? Rejoice! Getaway season is here...but wait: You're not the only one itching for an escape. If last year's staggering numbers are any indication of what lies ahead (the TSA screened 220 million passengers between Memorial Day and Labor Day in 2022, 30 million more than in 2021), you can expect full flights, packed hotels, and throngs of fellow travelers at every attraction. "This summer, we're anticipating crowds to be at an all-time high," says Patty Ehinger, an adviser with the travel agency Local Foreigner. "Tourism has skyrocketed in the post pandemic travel craze, and we're definitely not seeing any signs of a slowdown."
To avoid having to elbow your way to a prime lounge chair or viewing spot, you need an open mind, a willingness to explore the road less traveled, and these tricks, straight from global-travel experts.

Goodbye to All That - Burdened by the weight of wouldas, shouldas, and couldas, a former compulsive goal setter discovers the freedom of giving up.
Don't know about you, but this time of year, with the back-to-school sales and newpencil smell in the air, always makes me want to reinvent myself. When I was a kid, every fall was another chance to cast aside the embarrassments of the previous grade and turn into the totally cool individual I was born to be. (I'm still waiting.)

Humans have two main ways of absorbing information. One is a slow, deliberate process, in which we methodically analyze details for instance, comparing two laptop models before buying. The second happens almost instantly, and the insight feels like it came out of the blue. In fact, though, it's based on data we've gathered subconsciously over time and, in a flash, connected with our past experiences.
