Tell me about Vacations
I don't own any of the vacation worlds, therefore my Sims cannot go on vacations. I'm considering buying a pack, though. In Sims 3, I went on World Adventures as often as I could because the quests we...

I loved The Sims 3 World Adventures so, so much. It gave me the option of having a relaxing vacation or an adventure. I could buy a vacation home there and hunt for unique collectibles like glittery butterflies, or pick up a new skill, or buy items I couldn’t get back home. I was obsessed with getting and growing all the grapes and making all kinds of nectar combinations, so many I made an index card file system to keep track.
Jungle Adventure has the treasure-hunting feature that I occasionally enjoyed, and in Outdoor Retreat we can catch some bugs. But the similarities end there. What I do on vacation is bring as many portable objects as I can so my sims won’t be bored, since build/buy are disabled while you’re there. They play cards together, work on individual hobbies and sometimes bike around just so I can enjoy the scenery. I have a slight preference for JA because I like the tropical vibe and there are some dig sites that spawn along the road where you don’t have to get all geared up to “explore” and uncovering artifacts can be kinda fun.
We really need a pack that gives us recreational options that we can’t do at home, where we can also get pampered a bit. So I love what Snowy Escape has to offer and I think it will fill the void I’ve been feeling in regards to vacations. I’m sad that we can’t have hotels because I want to add one to Sulani (I fake vacations there but it’s ridiculous that that’s free) but I like the idea of owning a vacation home in SE even better because it gives my rich sims something to spend their money on, and they’ll have access to build & buy mode. I hope I’m not misunderstanding the second home ownership part.
