There have been a few instances in my life in which I have been jet lagged, but nothing will top The Australia Trip. I did everything you’re NOT supposed to do, which resulted in jet lag my entire trip and the remainder of the month when I got back to the U.S. I was determined to avoid jet lag during my most recent trip to Europe, and I succeeded! I knew my first week back was going to be incredibly busy at work, so I needed to be 100% on board and not distracted by something avoidable, like jet lag.
