Gen Z and Millennials Embrace 'Micro-Retirements' for Travel

Young people, like those in their 20s and 30s, are taking breaks from their jobs, called micro-retirements, to travel.

Instead of waiting until they're older, they're using savings or freelancing to fund trips around the world.

Many are traveling within India or going to places like the United States or the United Kingdom.

They believe it improves their lives and allows them to experience different cultures.

This trend is becoming more popular, as people are rethinking the traditional idea of retirement.

Some even save money by living in places where it's cheaper, like Vietnam or Bali.
