Staying sober when traveling internationally to places that make good alcohol?
I have been sober for almost 2 years. Before I got sober, I was into craft beers, which allowed me to frame my drinking problem as a sophisticated hobby.
This summer, I will be visiting the Netherlands, and it is likely that I will be doing at least one day trip into Belgium. The Belgian beers I have tried have been excellent, and I hear the Netherlands makes some good ones too. I will be traveling with my wife and my daughter, who don't drink at all, but I will be visiting family who are fairly heavy drinkers. I want to stay sober, but I am worried about the temptation and the sense of missing out.
For context, I live in the US, and my local craft beer and wine scenes don't tempt me like they did at first.
Has anyone else managed to stay sober when traveling to places known for their alcohol? Also, any local perspectives from any sober Belgians or Dutch on here?
