A Solo Vacation for the Weekend.

Source

Weekends are family time for me, it's one of the reasons why my engagement drops on weekends; I get distractions which I am poor at handling when engaging online. It is a bit better now that the football world is on break, it use to be worse when the leagues were on because we sometimes drag a bed to the sitting room and wrap around each other when watching football.

I do the cooking, my sibling just won't bother since they love junk and I hate to see mom stressing herself trying to make a meal by herself, I don't find it stressful anymore because I enjoy doing it so my weekend is always about the family. If I would do something different this particular weekend, it would be going solo to relax and pamper myself to the fullest.

Traveling out of the country just for a weekend will only add to my stress so I will choose to remain in Nigeria, an hour journey to my destination shouldn't be a problem.

Where would I go to?

The four corners of my room now bore me so I will leave my environment, city, and even state, I will pack for a short trip to Cross River state.

My destination is the Obudu mountain resort, this is one of the places I would like to visit soon in reality. I did my research about the resort some time ago and I discovered it has everything I can wish for, it would be the perfect place for me to enjoy the weekend alone.

What are the things I would do?

Relaxing doesn't necessarily mean sleeping, I would love to try a lot of cool things at the resort for both physical and mental relaxation.

Hiking
The resort has mountains and it would be awesome to try hiking for the first time, I have heard how exhausting it can be but my desire for it is high so I don't care about the stress.

I will spend at least 6 hours of the weekend hiking, I am definitely going to enjoy putting away my worries and life expectations aside for some time to accomplish my hiking mission.

I can sit on top of the mountain and enjoy the air and as well appreciate the beauty that surrounds the mountains, I won't hesitate to take lots of pictures as well.

Take a trip to the waterfall.
I will visit at least two waterfalls at the resort on different days and I will love to feel the water pouring on my head from the top of the mountain, it would be fun right?

Yes, it will be. I have dreamt of that a couple of times, the weekend won't be perfect without doing this. I will definitely swim in the water as well, it will be so refreshing.

Sightseeing.
The resort has some historical stuff that I can definitely learn from so I wouldn't hesitate to go sightseeing, the landscape, and the tree canopies will definitely make the activity a great one for me.

I am a lover of nature, and doing this will be loads of fun for me because I wouldn't hesitate to go with my camera to capture the beauty of nature. There are cable cars at the resort, so it makes sightseeing more enjoyable. I will walk for a while and as well check out the beauty of nature from the sky.

I can as well stop to play games since they have some game centers at the resort, spending some time at the swimming pool will be fantastic after going through the resort all noon. Aside from swimming, and drinking plus eating by the poolside, I can as well feed my eyes with lots of figures in bikinis.

Who knows if a princess out there would crush on an African prince like me? My stay at the resort would only get merrier.

Visit the Spa.

I will spend the night before leaving the resort at the spa, I might even spend the whole night there resetting my bones. I must do this before returning to my busy life of farming, blogging, and family.

Neck massage, the hot stone therapy, everything would really help my body since I suffer from aches from sitting long hours blogging. It would be the whole body massage and that would take a lot of time to get it done

Food and drinks.
Trying out new food will be cool but I am always scared to eat just whatever I see because I have a funny stomach, I wouldn't do much eating but I can drink as much as I like. I can imagine what their bars would look like, I am going to touch down at every spot not minding the repercussions of it and I hope I don't just walk into the wild thinking I am heading to my room.

I have read testimonies of how great their foods are so I will definitely try some out at a good interval throughout my stay.

Did I mention not going with my laptop? I wouldn't because I will be tempted to write and once I get into it, it would be hard to take my mind off it. Writing can wait, I will have enough experience to write about when I return from my short vacation.

It's really going to be an awesome weekend, one to always remember.
