I really loved winter breaks during college.
I would stay on campus because I was a resident assistant. I basically had the place to myself because the only people on campus were stray visitors, a handful of international students, and a skeletal support staff.
As an adult, I enjoy a similar winter break between Christmas and New Years. Traffic is light and the office becomes remarkably empty as coworkers spend the last of their PTO.
This is an excellent time to get work done (as long as you don’t need to work with someone on vacation.) This is also a much-needed pause between the hectic spurts of work that happen in early December and January.
