Even when the place is beautiful and you are grateful to be there, a trip can still leave you depleted.

I used to think that meant I had chosen wrong.

What I have come to think is that it is a question of fit, between what a place asks you to carry and what you were already carrying when you arrived. This one is from the vault, and it starts with a very long day in Kandy.

In this episode:

• The twelve-hour tour
• Two measurement systems
• Rain on the museum roof
• What you're already carrying

This episode is for you if:

• You came home from a good trip more tired than when you left, and you have never quite worked out why
• You're a solo female traveler who keeps adding one more stop because somebody said you should
• You're a woman over 40 fitting travel around work, and the weekends are not restoring you
• You have let somebody else decide what counts as worth seeing
