As a university student many always want to keep busy and enjoy the large amount of freedom they have surrounding their studies.
However, when you are on a budget having to finance yourself while studying, or finding appropriate and money-friendly activities, can be a challenge.
Below are some of the cheapest yet most enjoyable days out and experiences for you and your university friends to enjoy – without having to worry about overspending.
Picnic in the Park
The simplicity of a picnic in the park can be a really enjoyable boozy brunch or restaurant alternative. Obviously depending on good weather, you can get your cheapest and favourite snacks, a bottle of Prosecco, and lie them all out on a blanket.
Lying back while listening to music and enjoying some of your favourite treats with your friends, can be a great way to spend time together or celebrate a certain event. This is without having to pay for a big night out.
You can also bring games such as cards or anything that you do to pass the time such as a book, to truly relax and clock out from your week of studies.
Cocktail Making Evening
Going out for cocktails can be a really enjoyable treat. However, if one week you don’t necessarily have the money to do this, then creating your own concoctions at home can be a great alternative.
There are many recipes online, as well as on Freshered, that will ensure an extremely tasty and enjoyable evening with friends.
Even all creating your own cocktails and then sharing them with the group can be a fun pastime and an enjoyable boozy evening.
Bike Ride Across Town
Santander Bikes, or whatever the equivalent is in your area, are a great way to get out and about. This will not only count as your exercise for the day; it is also a cheap way to get to a certain location to enjoy a sunny evening, sunset, or just a ride in the fresh air.
These bikes that you can rent are reasonably priced. It also makes for more of an accomplished day rather than simply using Uber to get to your destination.
