Not sure about your holiday plans this year; why not try a staycation?
A staycation is a vacation that you spend at home, and if you plan it correctly it can be just as good as a holiday anywhere else.
Here is some ideas to make your staycation as good as a holiday away:
Create your own resort experience
Turn your patio or garden into a small resort oasis, setup a comfortable couch or lounge chairs, hang some fairy lights or lamps, put some holiday music on, mix you favourite holiday cocktail and relax all day long in your small oasis.
Set up your space in advance
Make sure your home is setup for maximum relaxation. Don’t leave duties or chores for your staycation.
Day Trips
Explore a little bit further. If you are feeling a bit itchy and want to get out of your town, why not plan a day trip to a neighboring town.
Turn your phone off
No social media, no news alerts, no emails.
Staying at home you never really get to shutoff from your normal busy life, so make sure to intentionally shut off and be on vacation.
Select and read a vacation book
Get that book you wanted to read for ages ready and make it part of your mission to finish that book during your staycation. Tip: keep it light and easy-reading.
Go camping in your backyard.
Setup your tent (or maybe just make a bed and sleep under the stars) in your backyard.
Board Game Night
Whether it’s just you and your partner, the whole family, or a group of friends – invite the gang, dress-up if you want and host a game tournament.
Treat yourself to a spa day
Spoil yourself with day at the spa and dedicate yourself to a day of ultimate mind and body relaxation.
