99% perspiration, 1% vacation
Brunch|April 13, 2024
Is it necessary to hustle for that muscle on a holiday? Why not stay active by exploring the town you're in instead? Does anyone in their right mind spend time on a treadmill while on holiday at one of the best hotels in the world?

99% perspiration, 1% vacation

That thought popped into my mind as I walked past the gym at the Four Seasons in Koh Samui (and yes, before you ask, that's exactly where the forthcoming season of White Lotus was shot). Why would you waste your time pounding away indoors - no matter how great the view when you could just as easily be walking on the beach or hiking up the verdant hills that dot the resort? Surely combining aerobic activity with some sightseeing is the way to go while on holiday?
