Forget the old excuses – not enough time, no babysitter for the kids, not enough money, and pending deadline after deadline. Enough! The feeling of being slowly suffocated from week to week working without rest and constantly being stuck in City traffic eventually takes its toll. Your annual vacation is still months away? No problem, take a mini break. Drive out of state to a quiet town with very little traffic. Just for a day or two; with your partner or a few friends, it will be good to recharge your batteries. Never undervalue the essence of communing with Nature.
Here are a few suggestions for mini vacations.
- Get out of the city
If you work in Lagos, Port Harcourt or Abuja for example you deal with noise pollution, traffic and greenhouse gases on a daily basis. You don’t need a degree in medicine to know you are healthier with fresh air. Drive into the neighboring towns and villages or a quieter city, just for the weekend and take advantage of the indigenous arts and crafts. They won’t cost a lot. And in the company of friends its quite therapeutic.
- Off to the spa
These days there’s a spa located somewhere around you, waiting to be discovered. With a platform like HotelNowNow not only will you find one, you get one within your price range. Now there’s no excuse, call and book a relaxing session or two to totally reinvigorate your mind, body and soul.
- Rediscover your city
So you would rather stay in the city because the quiet country life isn’t really your thing. It’s fine. Get a room at a hotel across town; go out for dinner, and catch a movie or play, change things up a bit. You will be astonished at the number of distractions available on demand.
- Escape to a resort
There are quite a number of resorts that offer special weekend packages and are often located by the ocean or a lake. In some cases they will let you bring your own food and drinks, just choose the deal that appeals to you the most.
- Picnic
Probably the easiest suggestion of the lot, wake up prepare all that lovely food and drive to a nice secure spot with friends or family. The government past and present has really done a lot in terms of reopening parks across the major cities. Some have rides and swimming pools, perfect for the kids; take them along, these moments are what fond memories are made of.
There you go, just follow any one of these easy steps and when it’s time to face the week ahead be fully energized.
