Best time of the year, stay a bit!

You are back from holidays and everyday life is already under control again? Control it, get your last vacation back home and dream a little longer.

We will tell you how you can extend your holiday at home .

1. Delicacies from other countries

Surely you have brought from the holidays also edible souvenirs such as spices, a piece of ham or a bottle of olive oil. Prepare a delicious menu with it - so the holiday still tastes a few weeks.

You miss the Italian pizza or the Spanish tapas? Find a new favorite restaurant near you and enjoy the food as if you were on vacation.

2. Mediterranean flair

There are many ways to bring the holiday feeling into your own four walls. Buy a shower curtain with shell pattern, paint the kitchen shelf sea blue or fill the sand brought from the beach holiday in glass vases.

Who has a balcony, this can easily miss a Mediterranean atmosphere. How about eg olive, lemon or orange trees? Lavender also exudes holiday fragrance.

3. Tourist in the home

The beauty of holiday resorts is that they awaken the spirit of discovery in us. But new things are not only in the distance, but at home . Try it out: explore unknown corners of your own city or nearby attractions like a tourist - this is a holiday in between.

4th picture show

Unfortunately, digital vacation pictures disappear too often in the computer. Therefore: Print the pictures and create a photo album - you can always look at it. Or have a photo session for friends.

Also a nice memory: a holiday diary with tickets, pictures and anecdotes.

5. Leisure wardrobe

The colorful patterned dress, the pareo or the straw hat - everyone has garments that remind him of the best time of the year. Occasionally bring these pieces out and wear them in your spare time.

Did you buy a scarf, bangle or chain while traveling? Perfect accessories to spice up the office outfit.

6. Holiday rituals instead of daily routine

Were you hiking regularly on vacation, are you still swimming in the evening or strolling on the weekly market on Saturdays? Keep these rituals at home .

Take the past holiday as an opportunity to break out of the daily routine. For example, how about sitting in the evening with a glass of wine on the balcony or spontaneously having a picnic by the lake or in the park instead of watching the xth crime scene replay on TV?

7. Smart time buffer

When planning a holiday, remember to keep yourself free for a few days after returning home and not start work again directly. Such buffer days help the body and mind slowly regain their habit.

Do not start your everyday work immediately at home. Go to sleep, have a nice breakfast, eat ice cream or take a trip. There is also time for laundry and mail later.
