When you leave your home for a few days to relax or visit another place, you are doing this. People often do this to rest, see new things, or spend time with family or friends. It means not staying at your usual place for a short time.
Many people say they want to "go away for the weekend" when they plan a short trip from Friday to Sunday, often to the beach, mountains, or a nearby city.
