The online lodging site has made this exercise almost dangerously easy. Of all my internet conjectures, though, nothing beats a little fictional vacation planning-and that’s when I turn to Airbnb luxury rentals. They say it’s good to have a healthy imagination, and I’m sure my aggressive daydreaming qualifies. And I zoom over to Ikea Dot Com to stock my imaginary mansion with the perfect living room set. I Zillow the most expensive zip codes in search of the mansion I’ll surely buy once my millions roll in.

I cyber window shop Louis Vuitton and Burberry for my dream wardrobe (that I then more realistically attempt to recreate at H&M, but that’s beside the point). I don’t know how your average bloke copes with a nine-to-five, but I certainly wouldn’t have survived every desk job (with all the emails to read and pencils to push) without what I call my Escapism Routine.
