Reply To: Pesach – Staying Home vs. Going Away

“It’s proper for each family to decide , not you, where it is proper for them to spend Yom Tov. JUst because staying home is good for you, is it possible that others might enjoy the spirit of Pesach by going away?

Please think about this.”

lesschumras: i think the reason why people go away is ussually because they can afford it and are just too lazy to clean or cook or because their neighbors are going away and then they HAVE to go away. Also, because the kashrus at these hotels is so questionable they may be paying thousands to eat chametz on Pesach when they could just eat chametz at home for alot less… I think most people who go away will say the spirit of Pesach is much better at home but its just easiar to go away. writing a check is definitely easiar than making Pesach and everyone wants the easy way out. there would be alot more tzedaka money if everyone stayed home this yr and gave the money they saved to tzedaka
