If you\u2019re staying home during some time off, check out this fun advice on how to make the most out of your staycation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean Before Hand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you didn\u2019t stay home for your vacation, do you think you\u2019d be cleaning? Of course not. You don\u2019t want to get stuck spending your whole time stressing about cleaning your house. So, a couple of days before your staycation starts, take the time to deep clean your home. It\u2019s better to have a busy work week than a vacation full of burdensome errands and chores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limit Screen Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s nothing wrong with losing a day or two of your staycation to binging your favorite show<\/a>, but too much screen time can make the days fade away faster than you\u2019d expect. So try to spend your time unplugged, and give yourself a break from the modern world. Read a book. Take a nature-filled stroll. Try that restaurant everyone keeps telling you about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be a Hometown Tourist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re looking for ways to get out of the house, you can still be a tourist\u2014even if you don\u2019t go anywhere. Whether you\u2019re in Manhattan or a small town in Minnesota, your local area probably has a few fun attractions that make it unique. You can easily get into the vacation spirit by letting loose and checking out your local tourist traps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set a Budget<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The chances are that one of your reasons for staying home was saving money. As you indulge yourself over the staycation, make sure not to overindulge. If you\u2019re ordering food or going out more than usual, setting a budget will help you stay on top of your spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a Day for Yourself<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you have kids and a spouse, you probably don\u2019t get a ton of time to yourself. Don\u2019t be afraid to take a day for yourself. To help you relax, you can turn your space into the ultimate spa<\/a> experience with a bubble bath and some candles. All that matters is you take the time you need to recharge and make your vacation feel fulfilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully, with advice on how to make the most out of your staycation, your time at home will be as memorable and relaxing as any vacation you\u2019ve taken before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
