This achievable bucket list is for you if you have planned a holiday somewhere this year but can’t yet go to your dream destinations because of Covid-19 restrictions. As the world is slowly recovering, you might find yourself only able to go travel locally. You can still have the adventure of a lifetime by creating a list of achievable bucket list items to make your holiday that much more special and memorable. Here are a few ideas for your next trip.
1.Watch a sunrise and sunset on the same day

We remember holidays fondly because it is a time in our life when we slow down and truly enjoy life. To make your next holiday memorable, wake up to catch a sunrise and watch the sunset on the same day. Take photos if you want to, but take joy in just watching the sky change colours.
2. Learn to make a regional delicacy from scratch

The best way to immerse yourself into a holiday is to try and learn something about the area you’re visiting. And the best way to learn about a people is to learn about the food they love. Enrol in a course to learn how to cook a regional delicacy. If you don’t like to cook, find a local mom and pop shop and eat there instead of a big restaurant.
3. Go to a community event

One of the most achievable bucket list items is attending something local – a pop-up market, a small performance by a local band, a community festival. Understanding the place you are visiting through the eyes of everyday events like that will make you appreciate your holiday that much more.
4. Do something that scares you

If staying still and being present scares you, then stop and smell the roses. If being away from your phone terrifies you, then do a short social media break for a couple of hours. Talk to a stranger and make friends. Whatever it is that scares you, set yourself a challenge and tick it off your bucket list.
5. Treat yourself to a luxury experience
It has been a hard two years and you deserve at least a couple of nights in a holiday resort curated especially for you. Browse your holiday options on QVI, whether you’re looking for short breaks or longer ones, you’ll find something to pamper yourself with.
