文化背景

The 'Operación Salida' is a famous cultural phenomenon in Spain where millions of people 'van de vacaciones' at the same time, usually on July 1st or August 1st, causing massive traffic jams. During 'Semana Santa' (Holy Week), it is extremely common for Mexicans to 'ir de vacaciones' to the coast, especially to places like Acapulco or Veracruz. Cities like Mexico City become unusually empty. In Argentina, 'ir de vacaciones' in January is the norm because it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Mar del Plata is the most iconic destination for middle-class families. Colombia has many 'puentes' (long weekends). People often say 'ir de vacaciones' even for these short 3-day trips to nearby 'tierras calientes' (warmer regions).
