The best ideas to survive this lockdown?

Just because we have to stay at home doesn't mean we have to be bored. There are plenty of options for entertainment: literature, streaming from theatres, movies from home and much more. If you want to make the most of the hours you have to spend at home, take a look at our list and you'll see that your time suddenly becomes scarce: 

1. Update on Netflix.

Got a favourite show you haven't had a chance to finish, or one you've been meaning to start? 

Now is the time to watch all those series you've been waiting for and haven't been able to enjoy due to lack of time. 

2. board games online now. 

Do you miss the evenings with friends when you played Scrabble or Poker late into the night? 

Most of the board games we used to play with our friends at home are now available online for mobile phones. Why don't you invite your friends to a virtual game night? Of course, it's not the same as the old-fashioned game nights, but you'll be surprised how much fun you can have. 

3. A meeting with friends - that's also possible online. 

How long has it been since you saw some of your friends?

Invite as many friends as you can imagine to a mass video conference. You'll find it's really fun to not only use the usual apps to communicate with your colleagues, but also to meet up with family and friends for a virtual beer. 

4. It's DIY time.

Still think DIY isn't your thing? 

Don't despair! There are countless tutorials on YouTube that will show you that you too can do a project at home and maybe create something new or save "that piece of furniture that's already falling apart". 

5. Read more.

How much have you really been reading lately?

Now there are no more excuses! Start reading the books you've been telling everyone you've already read. You have them at home and at hand, don't give them a second thought! Reading is not only one of the most brain-boosting activities (on all levels), it is also a real pleasure. A good book will sweeten the hours and days at home and who knows, you might even learn something. 

6. Start making your own cigarettes. 

Are you a smoker and tired of being dependent on tobacco shop opening hours and constant price increases for cigarettes?

Now is the time to get an electric cigarette injector and become independent. No more queuing in front of a shop to get your cigarettes and then paying horrendous prices for them. With your fully-automatic cigarette machine, you can produce your own cigarettes and enjoy them in the comfort of your own home.
