You probably don't like the term "staycation".Me neither.The terms holistay,
daycation and nearcation are also sometimes used.But you can't ignore them.As a concept,it
is quite attractive.Perhaps you've already had one,but weren't aware that's what it is called.
Staycations don't just mean staying in doing things around the house or just relaxing at
home.They are related to getting out more by taking day trips from your home to see local
sights.If you don't want to stay at home,you can holiday locally-for example,camping at
a local campground.
Staycations originally became popular after the 2008 financial crisis,when people were
looking for ways to reduce their spending.Apart from the savings,let's not ignore the other
benefits:you don't have any of the problems associated with travel,such as packing,long
drives,delays at airports and so on.
Some staycationers who base themselves at home like to follow a set of rules,such as
setting the start and end date,planning their activities ahead of time and avoiding routine.
You don't have to do so,but it helps to create the feel of a traditional vacation.Others,who
are aware that an extra barbecue or a visit to the local zoo may not match the thrill of foreign
travel,take it a step further.
A New Yorker,Karen Ash,decided not to go to Japan,as she had planned,but instead
took a week-long Japanese vacation in her own city.This included buying postcards and
souvenirs at a Japanese market,admiring bonsai plants,attending a taiko drumming concert
and watching Japanese soap operas on DVD.I don't think many people would want to take
this much trouble to create their staycation,but you get the idea!
