Thanks to the pandemic, we are all bound to our beds, couches, and even to our refrigerators, left to watch vacation and travel videos of years past as we yearn for an outing, a beach day, a resort day or a vacation day of any sort. The many zoom calls we have to go on for work and school leaves us tired, frustrated and wishing for a much needed break. While going outside may be too risky for us and can be dangerous to our family and friends, vacation that's safe and less harmful is achievable at home.
- A Made Bed
If you want to feel as though you are at a resort or hotel, then making your bed every morning can get you to feel as though you're really there. This gives you the sneaky illusion of room service and a luxury experience. Spruce up the experience with extra pillows, satin blankets or extra plush and thick duvets for that delicious warmth we crave on cold nights. Give yourself the perfect bed to directly crash into when you're done with your skin care and hair care for the night/ - Stay In Bed
Hotels and resorts offer so many activities in their itineraries and whenever we do book ourselves a getaway weekend, instead of participating in these outdoor activities, all we really are trying to do is achieve extra rest and an escape from everyday life. So, if we were to emulate this at home, take a few hours to stay in bed when you wake up. Go into kitchen to quickly whip up coffee or a healthy drink and bring a book with you. Light some calming scented candles for the full relaxing effect. - Breakfast In Bed
To achieve the ultimate illusion of room service, if you live with someone else, you can ask them to make you a breakfast in bed (only if they are willing, of course), so you can get the full vacation effect. If you live alone, then you can prep the breakfast at night, take it to the refrigerator and bust it out in the morning to then eat in bed when morning comes. You can order out, too and take it to bed as soon as it's dropped off at your door. Take some time to decorate it and make it the ultimate hotel and resort luxury breakfast. - Towels And Robes
If you want to feel the full resort and hotel vacation experience, then before your designated home vacation day, purchase extra fluffy and luxurious towels and robes that you can walk around the house in the way you would a hotel room or pent house suite. You can decide to splurge on towels and robes or look for affordable alternatives With the numerous options out there online and directly in stores, you won't find it hard to find the perfect material that offers you warmth that feels like the fluffiest hug. - At-Home Spa Day
Thanks to the pandemic and quarantine, we now have a lot of time and opportunities to perfect our self care routines which include fitness, skin care, manicures and everything else. Perfect your skin care routine in your fluffy towels and robes or just have a warm bath with bath bombs, a book, scented candles and a dimmed room. Have an at home sauna by steaming your face and body in the bathroom and come out feeling cleansed and luxurious. Do your make up like you've never done it before or fix up your nails in a new and exciting way.
