Summer holidays are so close I can smell the salty sea water on my skin.
I haven't had a proper 'don't work do nothing' type of holiday since my high-school days. I have either been working ridiculous hours at my old two casual jobs or like last year doing a little bit of traveling (which I consider a semi holiday because you don't have to work but it's by no means a 'do nothing' experience).
So as the last working week of the year quickly ticks away I think it's a good time to think about what I want to achieve on this rare occasion of a fully fledged 'do nothing' holiday.
- Go the whole 4 weeks without wearing my watch
- Wear no makeup except for going out to dinner and drinks with friends
- Let my hair dry naturally after a swim in the ocean and enjoy its authentic beachiness
- Keep technology to a minimum - I am leaving my laptop at home and only bring back my phone and camera
- Have a day/multiple days in Byron sunning myself at the beach, exploring and most importantly eating at my favourite Mexican restaurant Miss Margarita
- Practice my new skill, crocheting, every day
- Exercise daily* - whether it be a walk along the sand, doing some laps or going for a run. *except for Christmas Day of course
- Keep everything simple
And that's all. Simple, simple, simple. Embrace relaxation, embrace the calmness and just enjoy.
