I love that feeling of overwhelming excitement when stepping off a plane in a new place. Except that it’s often shortly followed by a pang of fatigue that’s so bad you can’t shift it. Jet lag is an unfortunate consequence of travelling the world.
Jet lag occurs when we move through multiple time zones and knock our body’s natural sense of time out. It can dampen your first impressions of a place. Even if you’re dying to get out and see all the sights, you simply don’t have the energy. Instead you’ll be curling up with your pillow unsuccessfully trying to sleep off your jet lag.
