What is a 'real' vacation?
If it's laying on the beach for a week in Hawaii, or traveling through France, those are luxuries that should not be annual expectations.
Vacation just means having time to periodically not work for a living. Anything above that historically has been earned as a rare experience, but today is unrightfully expected.
Like OP, we went camping or to visit extended family once a year. Instagram vacations to the beach were what the rich families did.
