Currently on Staycation
This year, many people had to cancel their summer vacation plans due to a pandemic that took the world by surprise. But focusing on the bright side is always the best thing you can do when adversity knocks on your door. Staying at home for summer isn’t that bad, and there are many activities that you can do safely even if your town is still on lockdown, just get creative, have fun, enjoy the present, and be responsible (wear a surgical face mask when needed). Do you need some ideas? Exercise, sunbathe, cook new recipes, play table games with your loved ones, paint, read, learn something new, etc. The list is endless… really!
