Solo Adventures


 

Challenge yourself in the kitchen

Make a list of all the items in your fridge, pantry, freezer, and wherever else you store your food – and turn it into something beautiful. No cheating! Leave the cookbooks in their place and turn off the internet. It's your turn to get creative.

Learn a bar trick

Check out tutorials like this or this one.

Take an extended walk

You know your normal walk? Triple it. Add plenty of breaks, and extend your walk to places you’ve never been before.

People watch

If you’re like me, you could spend the whole day sitting in the same spot, watching people go by. I’m not sure what it is, but it’s quite soothing.

Dance. Naked

It’s been too long since you’ve been as free as someone is when they're dancing naked.

Give something back

I’m talking about applying your skills in a way that truly benefits those you’re trying to help.

Re-write a rap song

You've always wanted to do it, now you can.

Create a crossword

Bugger doing them – make one instead. Make it overly difficult so when your friends give it a shot – they’ll be left standing at the crossroads (sorry). You can make one here.

Work some wood into something useful

You surprisingly don’t need an abundance of tools to put something reasonable together. Visit here and here to get started on something simple.

 

Getting cheeky with your friends


 

Paper aeroplane contest

You’ve always wanted to be in one and now’s your chance to host one. Turn off the internet to make it a bit more exciting.

Group ride

Throw (very carefully and precisely) your bikes on your car and head in the direction of a new unexplored area. Leave it explored.

Disc golf

Do I need to say more?

Bocce

Somewhat similar to bowls, with more destruction and carnage. Quick tutorial here.

Comical cook off

Grab yourself a common household ingredient – think bananas, carrots, pasta – and see who can turn it into the most creative dish. You’ll need a few unbiased (or biased) judges to determine the winner.

 

Family fun


 

Build your dream house

In the sand. You won’t be creating magnificent sculptures like this anytime soon, but you will have a pretty enjoyable time.

Race boats down your local creek

Now, now – prepare to always be asked to do this if you take your kids just once. They’ll instantly fall in love. And so will you.

Kite flying

An activity every child should have the joy of participating in at least more than five times in their life (and you too). You can DIY a kite or pick one up off the shelf off around $10-$30.

Giant bubbles

You’ve seen the videos on YouTube before, but have you ever actually thought about giving it a shot yourself? Prepare to become an instant legend at the beach or park.

Bobbing for apples

This isn’t just a carnival activity dating back to the Roman invasion of Britain in 43 AD, this is an activity destined for your backyard. Cheap, fun, and healthy!

Fill your garden with birds

DIY bird feeders are surprisingly easy to make. All you need is a couple of wooden spoons, a large plastic bottle, and some rope to tie it to the tree. You should end up with something like this.

 

With your partner


 

$10 market buy

Simple - you’ve each got $10 in cold hard cash, and you’ve each got 1 hour. Scour your local markets and whoever comes back with the best buy gets the ice cream.

Plant a memory

Before you plant your little tree, do something wholly out of the ordinary that you’ll cherish for the years to come. Dance the night away. Sing a love song as loud as you can. Whatever it is, make sure it’s brilliant. Then every time you see the tree deepening its roots, you’ll be reminded of that wonderful moment.

Cake a bake

No, you’re not going to buy a sponge cake, fill it with cream, and put strawberries on top. You and your partner are going to create something magnificent. A cake to be wondered. A cake to be awed. Then you’re going to devour it! Something like this or this one. Don’t wuss out before you even give it a try - it's easier than you think (I think).

Stargazing with a twist

The universe is your canvas. Head out of the city if you aren’t already there, bring a couple of notebooks, and plot out the same sections of the stars. Now, draw a piece of art around them. Get creative because the best artist gets the last glass of wine.
