Instead of just sitting around all summer, why not get outside and try something new? But if that doesn’t sound like your thing, here’s a list of ideas that might inspire you.
Travel, if possible.
It can be expensive, but you don’t have to go far. Even a short trip to Joplin or Kansas City can make your summer more memorable.
Make plans with friends.
Hanging out doesn’t have to cost anything. It’s easy to have fun when you’re with people you know. All it takes is a friend, a date, and a time.
Go on a drive.
It might not sound exciting, but a scenic drive can be surprisingly relaxing. Find a peaceful route, play your favorite music, and enjoy the view.
Visit the pool.
You don’t have to go alone! Going to the pool is a classic way to cool off, especially since there aren’t many other nice places to swim nearby.
All these activities can make summer more fun—but don’t forget, summer is also a break. There’s nothing wrong with kicking back, binge-watching a show, and getting some much-needed rest.
