A week where you just sleep is a week where you don't speak to anyone and don't have to make decisions. And the week where you clean everything would fit perfectly right after the week where you cook without cleaning up. So really you'd need 3 weeks of vacations.
I've actually done the week without talking to anyone, it even got a bit extended as it ended up lasting a year, and let me tell you that was refreshing as fuck. I came out of that feeling clear about myself and my future, and best of all, I wasn't shy anymore. Having lived a year without always hearing that I didn't speak good enough, loud enough, didn't behave good enough (and basically wasn't normal enough) and other type of constant criticism had finally allowed me to go past it.
One year without talking is not for everyone I think, but I definitely recommend taking 5-7 days.
