With the cooler temperatures, you may be beginning to go outside less and less, opting to stay cozy within your suite at The Residence. If you are feeling limited in your options for activities that you can partake in this season, there are multiple things you can do that help you learn or explore things from the comfort of your own home.
Here are some ways you can expand your mind this Fall at an independent or assisted living community in Kamloops:
Visit landmarks and monuments from around the world
Although you may not be able to travel much during these next few months, there are still ways you can learn about a new country through virtual tours of many of the popular attractions all over the world. Some ideas to get you started include: the Sistine Chapel, the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Taj Mahal, and Machu Picchu to name a few.
Explore famous museums and art galleries
If you really want to dive deeper into something specific in terms of art and exhibitions, there are virtual tours from leading art and history museums. Some of these tours are so realistic to the point that it feels like you are no longer at your Kamloops independent or assisted living community anymore. Plus, you get to avoid big crowds and lineups, giving you more time to actually explore the different exhibits.
Learn something new through an online course
There will never come a time when you know everything there is to know, so why not expand your mind by taking an online course or watching a lecture. There are so many options available for you, whether you want to learn a new instrument, polish up your language skills, dive deeper into some hobbies, or even get certified in something.
Listen to a podcast or watch a documentary
With many streaming platforms available, there are always new ways you can consume information or get entertained. Listening to a podcast, whether it’s a topic you are familiar with or something completely new to you, will broaden your mindset and get you thinking to the point where you will feel like you are also part of the conversation. On the other hand, watching a documentary will also be an immersive experience where you will gain deeper insight on a topic that you are interested in.
Escape with a good book
If you would like to unplug and step away from your electronic devices completely, reading a good book is always a great escape away from your independent or assisted living community in Kamloops. There are a number of genres you can get into, as they all have something new to offer you. It’s a great way to expand your mind by putting yourself into the shoes of different characters or gaining more insight into a specific subject.
