Vacation in the city as a reason for joy

It is finished! You worked tirelessly for a whole year, dreaming of hot countries and the endless sea. And so, finally, this day has come: you are on a long-awaited, well-deserved vacation, and the sea has not become an inch closer. A reason to get upset and close in a summer cottage? We don't think so!

How to spend a vacation in the city

This year, and last year, turned out to be difficult for the residents of our country in terms of the low exchange rate of the ruble in relation to the world currencies of the euro and the dollar. The sharply increased prices of tour operators for tours did not leave a single chance for a vacation in hot countries for many average Russians.

But even in such conditions, you can spend your vacation not only for the benefit of the whole family, but also with great pleasure!

When else would you prefer Russian tours to European resorts? But you won't deny that every child should know and be proud of their homeland? And how can he appreciate the endless fields and beauty of the Golden Ring of Russia, the air of the Russian forest and the penetration of the provincial cities of the Russian hinterlands, if he saw them only in pictures in boring textbooks?

With the children sorted out, and you yourself went out of town for a long time, had a family picnic in nature, walked in the woods and just got out for a walk in your hometown, which, oddly enough, has imperceptibly changed while you were sitting in a stuffy office, carefully postponing to rest under the palm trees? Rent rollers, arrange a family bike ride, go to the beach - you will be pleasantly surprised by what you suddenly see around you.

Things to do on vacation at home

It just so happened - this year you will not see not only sea beaches, but also country rest. Don't be discouraged, accept the situation and look at it from the other side:

• You don't need to rush anywhere. Enjoy every minute of your vacation: this is an excuse to get a good night's sleep for the first time in a year, and after that you can make further plans.
• You do not depend on anyone: neither on the annoying bosses, nor on the active guide trying to take you on all the excursions at once. You can just relax and enjoy the idleness. Unusual?
• Such a vacation is the reason for what you have dreamed of for a long time. Buy a gym membership, take yoga lessons or learn the movements of strip plastics. Start learning a foreign language.
• Change your hairstyle- just have time to get used to the new image before going to work.
• Just read, lying on the couch all day, you have wanted this for so long!

How to make money on vacation

Although vacation is needed in order to rest, extra income will not hurt anyone. Just keep in mind that such a part-time job should be a pleasure, otherwise you will not only get disappointment from such money, but you will also go to work even more tired than before the vacation, and they will demand twice as much from you, counting on your “fresh” strength ...

• If you are fluent in any foreign language, in your free time it is quite possible to translate small texts or take tutoring, pulling the kids of your acquaintances to school.
• Sometimes tutors are needed not only in English or French! Many schoolchildren have difficulties with the "great and mighty" and, perhaps, someone needs your help.
• If you have waited for your well-deserved rest, then this does not mean that everyone is so lucky! Many parents are racking their brains all summer with whom to leave their child during the holidays, while they are at work.
• Conduct master classes. Surely you know how to do something better than others: paint portraits, sculpt from clay or salt dough. Share your knowledge!
• You finally have time for needlework. You will not only be able to spend time interestingly with your favorite hobby, but also earn a little extra money by making products to order. Handicraft, by the way, is highly valued.
• Do you have an accounting or law degree? For many companies, an employee who knows his business is worth its weight in gold. But he also needs a vacation. While he is resting, you can offer your services by performing basic duties at home. Who knows, maybe you will work so well with your management that you will find a reason to change jobs. Remember, "nothing is as permanent as what is temporary"!

Vacation in the city: interesting holiday ideas

All the books have already been re-read, fingers hurt from knitting needles, and accounting reports are dazzling in the eyes. If at first you were so happy that you found a job for yourself in urban conditions, now you start to lose heart again, thinking that your whole vacation was in vain.

Feel like a tourist!

Take a backpack, a camera, wear comfortable sneakers and shorts. Buy a guidebook and a tour of your hometown - it will open up to you from a completely new side. Do not give out to anyone that you live here: share your impressions with the excursion group, ask the guide questions, take pictures against the background of attractions and buy souvenirs "for memory"!

And in the evening, go with your beloved to a restaurant on the waterfront, which you have never been to, try a new dish and ride a river tram, letting your senses run free and telling each other the impressions of an unforgettable vacation.
