12 Unique Ways to Make Your New Year Celebration Special 1. Host a Festive Gathering Invite close friends and family and prepare a menu of festive foods and drinks. Incorporate games to keep the energy alive. As midnight approaches, gather everyone for a countdown and a celebratory toast. This intimate setting allows you to share laughs, memories, and resolutions with those you hold dear. 2. Travel to a New Destination New Year’s Eve provides the perfect excuse to pack your bags and explore a new place. Traveling allows you to break from routine and start the year with new experiences, perspectives, and memories. 3. Plan a Themed Celebration From retro disco nights to glamorous masquerades, themes add a unique touch to the festivities. Encourage guests to dress according to the theme and prepare a matching playlist and decorations. 4. Reflect and Reset While celebrations are fun, the New Year is also an opportunity for self-reflection. Review your achievements, challenges, and personal growth from the past year. Write down your goals for the upcoming year, whether they include career milestones, health improvements, or travel plans. 5. Give Back to the Community The New Year is a great time to focus on kindness and generosity. Volunteer at a local charity, participate in a community clean-up or donate to a cause close to your heart. 6. Embrace Adventure If you’re an adrenaline junkie, consider celebrating with an adventure. Activities like skydiving, hiking, or zip-lining can make the start of your year thrilling and memorable. 7. Self-Care Night Sometimes, the best way to celebrate is by focusing on yourself. Spend the evening pampering yourself—run a warm bath, light aromatic candles, and indulge in your favorite book or movie. Reflect on your journey, set intentions, and enjoy some well-deserved “me time.” 8. Celebrate with Food For food lovers, New Year’s Eve is the perfect excuse to indulge. Plan a dinner party featuring a mix of comfort foods and gourmet dishes. Experiment with new recipes or order from a favorite restaurant. A potluck is another great idea—everyone brings a dish, creating a diverse and delicious spread. 9. Watch Fireworks Nothing says New Year quite like fireworks. Many cities host grand displays that light up the night sky with dazzling colors. Watching the bursts of light and color can be a magical way to welcome the new year. 10. Spend Time in Nature For a tranquil and rejuvenating celebration, spend time outdoors. A New Year’s hike, camping trip, or beachside bonfire allows you to connect with nature. The serenity of natural surroundings can provide clarity and inspiration for the year ahead. 11. Share Gratitude As the year ends, take a moment to express gratitude to those who have been part of your journey. Write thank-you notes, make phone calls, or simply spend quality time with loved ones. #NewYearsCelebration #NYE #TreatYourself #HolidayStaycation #HolidayTravel

5 Simple Ways to Celebrate the Festive Season 1. Baking We’re all looking for a little bit of normalcy in a year that has turned our lives upside down. Baking is a fun family activity that will stir up a bit of festive cheer. The smell of Christmas cookies in the oven will create a homey feel and the finished products will give you all a sense of accomplishment. The best part is, you get to enjoy some yummy homemade festive treats. 2. Get a Little Crafty Get those creative juices flowing by creating cards and decorations with some personal flair. Crafting will help take your mind off of all of your worries for a little bit. Your creation doesn’t have to be complicated, work with what you have and get everyone involved. Try using some recycled materials so you’re helping out the planet too – a double dose of good feels! You can take some inspiration from our previous DIY Décor Ideas blog, simply use some wrapping paper or holiday-themed trinkets to make them more festive. 3. Keep in Touch Small gatherings are going to be common this festive season with most people opting for more intimate family celebrations. This being said, keeping in touch with the people that matter in our lives is so important. A video call with extended family or close friends can make the distance between you more bearable, and brighten up your day and theirs. Since many of us may have had to switch international travel plans for local trips, you may want to think of some creative ways to get the overseas family involved in your festivities. 4. Watch Christmas Movies Spending an afternoon or evening watching Christmas movies is a must! (You could also spread out your movie marathon over the course of a week.) Let each family member choose a favorite holiday flick to watch with the family. Cuddle up under blankets with a warm cup of cocoa and some popcorn to make it feel extra special. 5. Family Recipes The tastes and smells of good recipes passed down from generation to generation can be a real pick-me-up. It’s extra special to share these with younger members of the family and get them involved in the process. Whether it’s the perfect roast or a special ingredient in great granny’s bread and butter pud, that personal touch will bring back memories and provide a great topic for conversation – depending on how willing you are to share your precious recipes. .................................................................................................

Here's Why A Christmas Getaway Is A Must! 1. You get to explore a different city Many cities around the country are perfect weekend trips at any time of the year, but for Christmas, they are even more magical! Around the festive season, Nairobi is a hub of cheer – many places in the city offer a Christmas experience that’s perfect for all the family. 2. More time to spend time with loved ones Christmas is all about spending time together as a family and there’s no better way to do this than changing the scene and taking time away from your busy life. By staying away, you can discover a new city or re-explore one you’ve visited before – but this time, with a festive twist! There are a variety of different places you can go to where you don’t need to worry about the stresses of hosting at Christmas, which means you can focus 100% of your attention on the people who matter the most. 3. Saves you money Whilst going away may seem like a costly venture, it doesn’t have to be! Whether you’re staying away for just a couple of days or a week, it doesn’t have to cost a lot – it’s the memories that are the most important thing to focus on! Maybe instead of buying gifts for everyone, you can treat them to a short getaway over the holidays. Not only that, but you can also avoid the rush of the Christmas shoppers! 4. It’s easier to relax Imagine this – you wake up on Christmas morning, exchange gifts with your loved ones and then instead of worrying about preparing your Christmas dinner, you walk down to a restaurant where a Christmas dinner will be waiting for you! Hosting your family and friends around the festive season can cause stress, especially if you are the one who cooks the dinner. Staying away means that you don’t need to stress about making sure the vegetables are ready in time for the turkey – food can be provided so you can relax and focus on catching up with your family and friends. 5. You don’t have to cook the Christmas dinner As much as we all love a good Christmas dinner, having to cook it is one of the more stressful parts of Christmas – especially if you’re cooking for a lot of people! When you plan a getaway for Christmas Day, you have the opportunity to put your feet up and enjoy the day without the looming thought of having to cook. You can also spend the day visiting the area, as you’re not spending hours in the kitchen – it gives you plenty of time to make some memories with family and friends, especially if you have young children. ................................................................. #servicedapartments #furnishedapartments #nairobi #holidays #holidayseason #HolidayStaycation #HolidayComfort #ServicedApartmentLiving #HomeForTheHolidays #ServicedLiving #HolidayHomeAway #ServicedLuxury #StayYourWay

Spending time with family and friends can provide emotional support and a sense of belonging. 3.

These practices promote a state of calm and help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and feelings, leading to better emotional regulation 4.

Creative pursuits such as painting, writing, or playing music have been shown to reduce stress, increase positive emotions, and improve overall mental health 5.
