Adopt A Pet

Every year many pets are left alone and abandoned. Rescue centres work hard to help these animals giving them somewhere to sleep and food. Some of these animals have been badly treated and neglected. Why not during your lifetime adopt one of these animals. Find out where your nearest rescue centre is and have a look. If you have some spare time why not see what you could do to help the centre either in voluntary work or fundraising to help out. Rescue centres can be home to many animals from cats and dogs to rabbits, guinea pigs and rodents. So whatever pet you’re looking, you may be able to help one of these animals to find a loving home…

Ever Thought Of A Walking Or A Canoeing Expedition?

CanoeingWalking or canoeing for 4 days or more with camping in between really makes you realise how much you appreciate your warm bed at home. Waiting half an hour for a stove to boil water makes you realise how much quicker your hob, microwave or oven is at home! But also, the thought of getting through those few days when you thought you wouldn’t manage it is also such an achievement! There are also many expeditions abroad that you could join in just a few clicks!

Sample Foreign Foods

Why not sample foods that you are not used to, you could be surprised what you like and there is so much variety! From Mexican and Chinese to Indian, Spanish and Italian! Most countries also have their own specialities whether it ranges from frogs legs and snails to pigeon, ostrich or kangaroo. When abroad why not ask what specialities they have and try something new!

Move House

I think during your lifetime it important to live in more then one place. That way you can get to see what it is like to live in other places, either within the same country where there are vast differences between villages and cities, or to different countries, where you could see what it is like to live in different cultures. You can get to know different people and see different places, and it could be a whole new experience to have!

Raise Money while trying to get Home!

Why not raise money for charity along with your friends and family for this one. In groups of 3 with at least one male, make sure there is at least two teams for there to be some competition! Get someone not in one of the teams to pick a destination, both teams need to be blindfolded and taken to the destination. When they arrive they need to make their own way back home without spending any money, so make sure they are in a different town to where they started with a fair distance to travel!

 Sponsorship could be raised as to which team gets back first or for each individual person to complete the challenge. Pick a charity the money will go to and they may be able to issue you with letters of authorisation so that while on your travels you could also raise money for charity at the same time, you could even dress up! Don’t forget to take some money with you just incase you can’t get back, and check in every few hours with people not in the teams so they can check where you are and that you are safe. At the end, there would be good cause for celebration!

Another alternative to this, is you could be sponsored to see how far you can get without spending any money, it had been known that some people have managed to get abroad without spending a penny!

Learn to Ride a Bike

Learning to ride a bike is an amazing feeling, the wind in your hair as you cycle away. It’s quicker then walking and gives you access to routes that cars cannot get to. Having a bike ride could be an amazing day out with beautiful views and a picnic along the way! It’s also cheaper then a car so can get you to some places you are unable to walk to!

Super GirlDressing up is something you have to do at least once in your life!

Often there are themed nights out such as for birthdays, hen and stag nights or Halloween.

Google Search your Name!

One thing you could do for fun is to type your name into google and search! Who knows what you could find out! There may be poetry by someone with your name and other people all over the world with exactly the same name as you! There might be a race car driver or an actor/ actress with the same name as you or someone designing an exhibit or an artist!

Once you’ve done this, you could also search to see what your name means. Urban dictionary is an example where you can type your name in and see what people think, of people with your name.

Try being a Vegeterian!

Why not in your lifetime try and be a vegetarian, give up the meat and maybe the fish. It’s a difficult challenge but you may find that it doesn’t make a huge difference to your diet when you can still eat much of what you used to. You may even find you feel healthier for it, eating more vegetables!

Once you’ve tried this you could try other diets to see what they are like as well, like being a vegan or a fruitarian. This could give you a greater idea of what people may go through in preparation for their meals everyday.
