A holiday is an investment in yourself
Feeling like your batteries are running low and need a recharge? That could be your body screaming for a holiday. Stop and listen to it. But as much as we all dream of a perfect holiday, sometimes it’s quickly shattered by how much it will cost. Like anything involving money, planning and expert advice increases your chances of reaching your goals.
Jeanette’s top tips on travelling and holidays
- Plan in advance and budget not only for your living expenses but eating out and entertainment too.
- Save for a bit longer if you need to and enjoy an extra special holiday, without worrying about how you’re going to afford to pay for all those extras.
- Make sure not to dip into your savings for your long-term goals.
Local is ‘lekker’
COVID-19 and lockdown restricted a lot of us from overseas travel. There’s never been a better time to explore South Africa and promote local tourism. Frans Hiemstra, General Manager of Uber Sub - Saharan Africa recommends looking for ‘specials’ like using an Uber Pass that offers you savings and discounts on eats and rides – saving you more so you can do more!

Ideas for a cost-effective break
Taking a break at home without travelling can be another way of re-energising yourself. It’s less expensive and can be fun. Here are some ideas you can try:
Board games
Playing board games with the whole family is loads of fun and can last for hours.
Arts and crafts
You don’t have to be a renowned artist to start painting for fun or making sculptures with dough.
Cooking
Get the whole family in the kitchen and try out a new recipe or have a cook-out competition.
Dancing and singing
Have a music night where you’ll dance and sing your heart out to your favourite tunes.
