My 'Staycation'/'Holistay' Essentials for 2019



My 'Staycation'/'Holistay' Essentials for 2019

I love to travel, I’ve learned to appreciate a good staycation over the years. Let’s be honest, travelling can sometimes be exhausting. Have you ever felt that you needed a vacation after a vacation? But firstly let's discuss what is staycation?


Staycation

Before I jump into discussing my staycation essentials list, let’s discuss for a minute what I mean by staycation. I’m sure you’d be aware that the term itself is a blend of the words ‘stay’ and ‘vacation’. Some define ‘staycations’ as holidays spent in one’s own country, whereas others by ‘staycation’ mean when you have time off work, but decide to stay at home (to do some renovation, long-forgotten housework, or just chill).

My 'Staycation'/'Holistay' Essentials for 2019
Staycations allow you to experience your home city from a different point of view, getting to know new areas and neighborhoods. Depending on where you decide to spend your staycation, you may choose a hotel with a spa or a very nice restaurant, or a place that it walking distance from a theater or cinema, for example. Ultimately, I think to relax and indulgence are the main reasons to go on a staycation.

From Manchester to lake district in the UK, I am just a short drive away from the lakes and beautiful sceneries of mother nature, also, we have a handful of theme parks to choose from nearby. Spring is one of my favorite seasons for staycations as the whole UK is blooming with beautiful and colorful flowers and hilltops are covered with green carpets. When I’m getting ready for our staycation there are a few Spring staycation essentials that I absolutely have to have.

Genuine TEA  Genuine tea originates from the Camellia sinensis plant and from no other.
