It’s Valentine’s month. Sound expensive? It doesn’t need to be; you don’t have to spend a lot of money to show your Valentine and loved ones you care.
Here are some budget friendly ideas from our team at FASTA to impress your date, and your wallet.
- Have an active morning with your Valentine:pack a homemade breakfast picnic with hot coffee andhike up Lions Head(or Table Mountain!). Enjoy the food, coffee, view and being with your loved one in beautiful surroundings.
- Enjoy the beautiful outdoors:head to Cape Towns’ otherbeautiful outdoor spotswhere you can enjoy a picnic and coffee or sundowner without the hike or entrance fee. Ideas such as De Waal Park, Company Gardens, Signal Hill, Bakoven Beach, Boulders – the list is endless in our beautiful city!
- Create a mini indoor picnic at home:cook your partner’s favourite dinner, create a romantic set-up in your home and use what you have to make it feel special.
- Breakfast in bed:forget all New Year diets and make a big stack of pancakes together. Smother them in syrup and start your day together sweetly!
- Recreate a special memory:think back to a special occasion you spent together and recreate it. Take a trip down memory lane and make that delicious meal together, or watch that movie again that made you laugh together – recreate your favourite date night!
- Date night with your best friend:it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a Valentine, best friends are those significant people in our lives who we go to for support, fun and laughter. Pack a picnic and head to your favourite spots or join a painting class for some fun and laughter together.
