Seven amazingly affordable ways to bond this Jamhuri Day

Jamhuri Day is here, a holiday that most us will take the hard-earned break to bond with their partners. A public holiday gives chance for a couple to bond.

A couple’s time together does not mean a deep dig into our pockets, but rather a time that will remain in your memories.

There are many activities that couples can engage in this Jamhuri without accumulating unwanted bills

Cook together

A public holiday rings good food in almost everyone’s mind. However, with the current economic status, it might not be easy going out to eat. How about making some good food for yourselves at home? Brushing against each other in the kitchen will provide the best platform for bonding as well as take care of the ‘eat out’ issue.

Movie night

When was the last time the both of you watched a movie you like? It may not be in the recent past, owing to the tight schedules that you two have. Jamhuri Day is your chance then. Grab your favourite movie and snuggle in front of a screen and laugh your day away.

Games

Engaging our partner in a competitive game like scramble or chess is a great idea to spend the day together. Grab a game the two of you like and set prizes for the winner and a penalty for the loser. It could be, the loser cooks dinner or the winner earns a massage or something of the sort. At the end of the game, both of you will be relaxed, which is the whole point of having a holiday.

Picnic

The idea of taking some food to an open park somewhere has slowly being replaced by walking into restaurants and sitting on round tables. Make an exception this Jamhuri day by grabbing a mat and some food and take your partner out to the open. Choose a spot that has significance to your relationship, like where you first met or where you had your first kiss. Bring enough food as the longer you stay the better it becomes for the both of you.

Volunteer

There are so many projects in the society with needy people, especially children where you can choose to spend the day. Spending a day with needy people and helping them out will strengthen the bond the both of you have by the time you call it a day. Choose a place convenient for both of you and give your best shot at giving back to the society. before the end of the day, the two of you will appreciate being there for each other.

Home spa

Enjoy a day together at your house in a bathtub soaking in your favourite bath gels. Take turns to massage each other and treat each other with massages and food. Talk about your relationship and whatever directions you want it to take. Such pampering will be rewarding at the end of your day.

Surprises

Use your free time this holiday to shop for something simple that your partner loves and give it to them in the evening. It could be something simple they have wanted for a long time but never got to buy. That is bound to open up to a rewarding evening for you.
