Is your caffine intake high? that could be the reason for your short sleep hours.
The beach scene has an idyllic peaceful look to it. My wife and I have made a dozen trips to Cuba (
), several to Mexico ( ), the Dominican Republic (
), Panama (), and a few other similar "tropical paradise" destinations. Most were great...most, not all...but after a couple weeks we were cooked clean through and ready to go home. Nice places to visit...wouldn't want to live there. We always went to somewhat remote far-from-town spots, eco-lodges, etc. No casinos or nightclubs or other touristy crap, and didn't miss it at all.That first pic? We'd likely visit a place like that once, if the price were right...but I really doubt that anyone would be willing to pay us enough to get us to do that.
I'm the same way, 6 hours is about my maximum in a night. When I was working, I would be up every morning at 4:30 - 5:00, and continued that routine on my days off and my weeks home because it's a lot easier on the body to get into a routine and keep it going. Guys who slept in several hours on a day off laughed at me...but I laughed at them because they didn't know it if was day or night half the time. I always set an alarm, and almost always woke up minutes before it went off.
Obviously, when you're tired there's nothing that feels as wonderful as a good sleep, but...I really begrudge the time lost to sleep, and would love to not need it.
