Sorry about loss of your job. They have to pay your PTO, make sure you get that paid to you. Honestly if I lost my job now, the last thing on my mind would be to travel. I’d be too busy looking for a job. Or when you get your PTO money paid, you could go on vacation (yes in the winter) and then look for a job. Where is it not nice in the winter months? Siberia? What are those mysterious locations that are only nice in the summer?
