This year has been full of unexpected surprises. Instead of dwelling on negativity, focus on positive things you have done that perhaps wouldn’t have happened given normal circumstances. Before 2020 comes to a close, try checking these three things off your bucket list to end the year on a bright note.
Take a Road Trip
With limitations on air travel, now is the perfect time to take that cross-country road trip you’ve always dreamed of. Gather your family, a group of friends, or go solo to enjoy a little slice of America you haven’t yet explored. Consider popular routes, such as Route 66, the Pacific Coast Highway, or a trip involving national parks. You can always plot your own stops, pinpointing dream destinations intermixed with locations where you can visit family and friends. Curate the perfect playlist or download an audiobook or podcast and get ready to enjoy the great open roads.
Learn Self-Defense
No better time than the present to learn self-defense. Protecting yourself will never go out of style, and it is suitable for a range of ages, both male and female. Consider taking self-defense classes, such as karate or Taekwondo, or opt for gun certification courses to obtain a concealed carry permit. After obtaining proper training and certification, ladies can consider womens gun apparel to stay protected in style.
Meet the Neighbors
The unique circumstances of 2020 have shown everyone the importance of community and engaging with others. While large group gatherings are still not feasible, you can still get to know your neighbors in small groups. Consider hosting a backyard barbeque, happy hour, or ice cream sundae party for neighborhood children. Get the whole family involved with a social-distance safe lemonade sale to encourage neighborhood fun and community.
Make the most of 2020 by ending the final half of the year with fun memories and useful skills!
