Going outside is something we could all do more often. But just going outside for no reason is awkward. These are the best things to do outside when you need fresh air.
Need fresh air?
Getting outside is good for you! Especially if you feel like you’re stuck in the stress of everyday life, getting some fresh air can be a very good idea. It’s good for your mood and even your health!
Have a nice picnic
Would you like to spend some time outside with some nice company? Then organize a nice picnic! This is the ideal activity for when you are looking for something social and fun, but not something very active. Ask your friends to all bring something tasty. This way you can enjoy the fresh air, each other’s company and good food together.
Do you have a garden? Go gardening
Do you have green fingers? If you need some time outdoors but really want to get out of the house, gardening is a great option. Unfortunately, this does require that you have a front or back garden. A balcony would even be possible. This way you can be one with nature for a while, right at home.
Go for a walk
The most obvious option if you want to get outside is to take a walk. Enjoy nature, or discover a new neighborhood in your hometown. Walk differently than you normally do. This way you discover new things and keep the walk fun. In the meantime, put on your favorite music or a podcast and relax for a while.
Put on your roller skates again
Is walking not for you? Then you can also get your roller skates from the attic! During the pandemic, roller skating was a huge trend. If you bought them then, chances are they are still around somewhere. Please make use of it, but be careful!
Take your indoor hobbies outside
Do you mainly have hobbies that you normally do indoors? Then take them outside. For example, read on a terrace or in a park. Or take your knitting needles to your balcony. Sometimes you don’t have to be very creative to meet your need for fresh air.
Grab your bike
Finally, you can also fill your need for fresh air the Dutch way. Grab your bike and ride around your village or city or ride to a nearby town that you don’t visit very often. You can cover greater distances in a shorter time, so take advantage of it.
