For some, the Easter holidays would have meant a vacation. Finally, a break from everyday life and off to visit relatives, hit the ski slopes, or travel to a faraway land. Well, plans can change so quickly, and now we're all in the same boat. And that boat is currently stranded on the island of "home." It doesn't sound as idyllic as a vacation, of course, BUT we wouldn't be us if we didn't have a solution for that too. A staycation? Of course it's possible (we don't really have any other choice):
1. Staycation made easy
Yes, instead of a vacationcation, there's now a staycation – a stay-at-home vacationcation. We know: you can have a fantastic wellness and relaxation program right at home. Everything you need for a little escape from everyday life can be found within your own four walls. We have some ideas on how you and your family can best unwind. This way, we guarantee you a great vacation at home – because, as everyone knows, there's no place like home!
2. Preparation
First, you should do some preparation to fully enjoy your staycation. This includes doing some grocery shopping beforehand, so you don't have to do it again during your vacation. Make a list of all the things you'd love to treat yourself to during your time off. Don't forget that exquisite wine and chocolate you've been wanting to try for so long. The more you prepare before your break begins, the less you'll have to worry about while you're there!
3. Off on vacation!
Is the date set? Then let's get started! From now on, it's all about enjoying home, relaxing in the bathroom, eating well, and simply not answering any annoying calls.
4. Sunset on the balcony
Almost every vacation includes a romantic sunset. With us, you can enjoy one right on your balcony, at your window, or in your garden! How about some cocktails for a home happy hour? Our mocktails (which can also be refined and transformed into cocktails) are the perfect accompaniment to your evening stroll on the balcony. Let's raise a glass to a fantastic staycation!
5. Gourmets
A great vacation is also made possible by wonderful food. If you enjoy cooking, now's your chance to try recipes you've never dared to attempt before. It doesn't have to be a big meal every day, but a delicious feast brings a touch of luxury to your home. And for those who don't consider themselves master chefs, there are always delivery services. Simply order in and let the taste of the food transport you to a faraway land.
6. Spa area: Bathroom
A massage at a spa – that would be pure luxury! Well, if you live with your partner or family, that's possible too. Pamper each other with massages or face masks. Put on some relaxing music (Spotify has great playlists) and light a few candles. WALTZ7 fragrances also help you unwind. With the Best-Of-16 Box, you can try aromatherapy in eight different scents. Wellness at home can be so easy!
7. Off to the balcony
A day trip to the balcony adds variety to your holiday. Those first spring feelings blossom especially well in the fresh air. A walk in the neighborhood also provides some fresh air, and the sun's rays on your skin are particularly warming when you're spending most of your time indoors. A picnic on the balcony would also be a welcome change from the usual dining table. And if you don't have a balcony, open the window wide and lay a blanket on the floor in front of it. That way, you can enjoy a meal without actually going outside.
8. Home cinema
A cozy evening at home is made even better with a home cinema experience. Now's the time for popcorn, nachos, and Maltesers! Pick an exciting film: you can rent the latest cinema hits for a few days on various platforms. That way, you can watch the newest movie in complete relaxation on your couch. The best part? Nobody cares if you fall asleep during the film. ;)
9. Explore the surroundings
If you're tired of just lounging around at home, get outside! A walk will clear your head and the exercise will lift your spirits. You can choose a different route each time and discover places you've never seen before in your neighborhood. Take some time now to observe your surroundings. You might notice things you'd otherwise miss!
After these exhausting and exciting first weeks in isolation, we need a break where we can let loose. Anything goes on vacation! Have fun and enjoy your time. With more energy, it will be even easier to cope with the current, somewhat different daily routine.
