If i dont have anything planned like this year. Not much at all, as little as possible actually.
Can you not just go back to work and take your vacation days at a later point when you're actually going to do something useful with them? Instead of wasting them on Gaf and drinking by yourself. That just sounds so sad.
When I'm on vacation, I usually just sit at home and play video games. Eventually I'll do some productive things that I usually don't want to do during the work week (cleaning, laundry, etc). I also go and visit people if possible (I mean usually they're working tho)
But mainly, just chill and play games.
Vacations where you go out of town are fun, but they're also expensive and can be stressful
I'm assuming you're single?
If I wasn't married and had a week off of work I'd buy a fuckton of weed and booze, wake and bake in the morning, watch TV/Movie or play video games, go out and get an amazing lunch, come back, start day drinking, probably smoke again, play more video games. Once I was nice and buzzed walk to the beach w/ a book and some beer (I live close to beach so this isn't realistic for everyone), read for a few hours, come back around 7, order Pizza or Chinese or some other really good dinner for delivery, smoke again before dinner, keep drinking and cap the night off w/ TV and/or Movies since at that point I'd be too fucked up for video games.
I would do some variation of that plan every day. Mix in nights where I uber into town and drink w/ some friends or have friends over for a few of the nights and get rowdy.
Last year i was out walking alot on my vacation playing Pokemon Go.
Just do things you enjoy. What a weird question.
Sounds like you're bored with your life or depressed.
If you can't find ways to relax on your days off there are larger issues at play.
Leaving on vacation tomorrow actually.
My girlfriend and I haven't been together long, so this will be my first vacation with her. We split the cost and will be going for about 9 days.
First 4 days will be just us at the beach (about 5 hour drive from here) in a resort Hotel. We'll probably spend a lot of time in the bedroom, then drinks by the pool/ocean, then we'll probably go out in the evening to get some good food/drinks. Maybe a walk on the beach here and there, and a lot more hours in the bedroom before passing out, haha.
On Monday we'll leave the resort and head North to meet my mother and daughters at a beach house we rented for the rest of the week. Monday - Saturday will be spending time with family/girlfriend and playing on the beach, putt-putt, ice-cream, restaurants, shopping, etc.
I'm looking forward to this a lot. My first vacation without my ex-wife (was married 10 years), and she always made the vacations suck (horrible attitude and selfish on trips). So basically, my big/longer vacations are planned out.
As for staycations, I'd probably take the kids out to parks, go to zoo (haha), and I love sports so it's not unusual for me to take them to baseball/football/hockey games.
Try a baseball game maybe?
I also play a lot of video games if I stay home, although I try not to overdo it. Try some new food or restaurant too . Call up an old friend, or newer friends, and go do something. Invite them over for a movie maybe. Going to a theater is fun too.
since you made this topic i'm sure you don't really wanna spend a bunch of money, i don't get much time off for trips so what i do is find local cool nature places, sometimes abandoned places, just try to find new places within an hour or max two drive to go see. doesn't have to be a pay thing just find some awesome parks or go see hidden waterfalls you can find with google or whatever your area has. i live in ohio so i feel like i never run out of cool nature/free places i haven't seen yet, and most people i know have been to more states and countries than me but i hardly ever meet anyone that's really explored the area around them as i have which is just as cool since i guarantee there's really awesome hidden places and parks or just ones you've never checked out. the internet is full of easy ways to find this stuff that years ago you needed to hear by mouth to mouth.
instagram is really good for finding things that are lesser known like this, follow photographers in your area and you will no doubt find beautiful hidden gems that aren't well known nearby that are worth checking out
when i see a cool places i go into google maps, and drop a landmark there which saves on your account. you can give it a label too, then when you get some free time you can easily nab multiple places you've had on your radar, i wish i started using that feature years ago. gives you a nice rolodex of places you can take friends and family later too since you won't forget the locations
Yeah this!Day drinking
you stayin' at home? go out with friends, jack off, drink beer
