9 Benefits of Going on Holiday with your Family

Think you're too old for a summer break with your parents? WRONG. Of course, it's fun to go on holiday with friends and lovers too, but sometimes going with family can be just as fabulous - Here are 9 reasons why:

1. At the risk of sounding like a spoilt brat... they pay.

2. You've pooped in the same bathroom like a MILLION times before - embarrassment averted!

3. If seeing each other 24/7 isn't great for your relationship - you already know before you board the plane (headphones? check!)

4. Quality time. If you're a student like me, you've spent the year away studying. A holiday together gives plenty of time for that well-needed catch up about that holiday you had with your friends 3 months ago.

5. Seeing your parents drunk is HILARIOUS.

6. Selfies like this.

7. THE FOOD! With parents paying, there is no doubt you will dine like royalty for the duration of the trip.

8. It's a lot less socially demanding... if you're just not in the mood that night, your family don't care.

9. And if you do go out, you don't have to worry about who is best-dressed/who looks best in a selfie (despite number 6 you take a LOT less selfies).
