Traveling Abroad for Vacation

Hello, is it permitted to travel abroad with my spouse for relaxation?

It is advisable to avoid traveling abroad for vacation unless there is a very special reason that justifies vacationing specifically abroad. In such a case, one should ask again in a specific manner.
