There’s surprising news from price comparison website Confused.com that’s found taking a holiday can be a stressful experience!

According to the survey, under-30s find it difficult to adjust to having fun in the sun  taking at least two days to relax.  While 40% of women surveyed found holidaying nerve niggling citing losing their luggage as well as the organising men and kids as key blame factors.

Other causes of increased stress levels include delayed flights, family arguments and bad weather.

And contributing to the rise in stress levels are language barriers and a cultured environment which proved too much for the not-so-tolerant tourist.

What the study failed to show was the level of stress that Brits have when showing off their holiday photos.  With the obession with social media and photo-sharing on websites such as Facebook, it seems more of us are using photo editing tools such as Photoshop and Google Picassa to make us look airbrushed.

Usually, reserved for the front cover of glossy magazine photoshoots, it appears that holidaymakers are getting to grips with airbrushing and using simple photo editing tools to take away flabby tummies and eliminate red-eye.  The resizing tool is also useful for giving the illusion of a great beach body without having to go on the pre-beach diet.

Photo tips for a diet free holiday coming up I think….Now if that doesn’t relieve the stress of going on holiday, I’m not sure what will.
