How to Make the Most of a “Staycation”

Looking for a break from your usual routine but not looking to stray far from home?
A staycation- a portmanteau of the words “stay” and “vacation”- allows you to do both. Visit your local popular destinations and become a tourist in your own town.

Here’s a list of ideas to get you started:
