I've just got back from a weekend away, and I asked everyones advice about swimming before I went. The experience I had was really painful. The chlorine wasn't a problem, but the movement whilst swimming really hurt, so I couldn't stay in the pool long. Thats only my opinion though, because everyone else seemed fine with it.
Also, I found being out of my routine, and away from my own bathroom, really stressful and it messed up my insides as I ate things I wouldn't normally, and more of it!! I'm actually pleased to be home, which is unusual after a break! I don't think I'll be travelling again in the very near future, although when I booked it, I was having a good few days, but I've had a bad week this week. Damn this blinking fissure!!! It ruins everything! :(
