Money doesn't buy happiness, and there are many ways to have fun without spending a penny. Back when I was a poor college kid, I had the opportunity to get creative with my free time to keep myself entertained. Here are 4 fun activities I liked to do for fun that are all free.
Acroyoga
This is probably my favorite way of hanging out with my friends. It is a fun team-building activity that is 100% free. All you need is a yoga matt and a park to play at. Not only do I get to enjoy fresh air with my friends, but we also get a great workout.
Read
On rainy days or days where I want to relax, I enjoy reading books. If you don’t want to buy books, sign up for a library card at your local public library. When you borrow a book from the library it is free. With the library app, I don’t even have to physically go to the library, I can just order books on my iPad.
Explore
I love playing tourist in my own backyard and exploring new hiking trails. There is something fun and exciting about discovering hidden gems in your backyard. Sometimes, I take my dog buddy, Cooper, on a hike. He loves it just as much as I do.
Volunteer
Another great way to have fun and productive is volunteering for an organization you admire. I like to walk dogs for the shelter because I love animals. They make me smile and they are always happy.
Love,
Karen
