TRAVEL ALONE
Whether you’re more of an urban explorer or a beach bum, traveling alone is a great way to achieve the peace of mind that most people are seeking on vacation. There’s a lot of pleasure to take out of being entirely on your own schedule for a few days and filling that time however you see fit. It also gives you an opportunity to break out of your social comfort zone and meet a few fellow tourists.
RUN A MARATHON
Training for a marathon is a huge time commitment that’s way easier to squeeze into your schedule in your single days. There’s no annoying other people with your early morning alarms or specific dietary needs. Not to mention completing said marathon gives you all the bragging rights to basically anyone you’ll ever meet after the fact. Just make sure you have people rooting for you on the sidelines.
EXPERIMENT WITH YOUR FACIAL HAIR
You know you’ve always been a little curious to try out a stache. Maybe going full Gandalf is more your speed? You can even try to bring the soul patch back (but please don’t.) It’s the perfect time to switch things up on your face. If the look doesn’t seem to be working for you, just buy a razor.
CHANGE UP YOUR WARDROBE
If you’ve been buying all of your clothes from the same place since high school, it’s time for an upgrade. Your wardrobe should mature as you do. Except concert tees…they’re timeless. Wear that vintage Eddie Money shirt with pride!
FOSTER ANIMALS
Opening up your home to an animal waiting to be adopted helps save the lives of the pets and provides you with a little companionship. Caring for these animals in need can also add some structure and responsibility to your bachelor lifestyle. It also scores you major points on your online dating profile.
MASTER A CUISINE
It’s never been an easier time to learn how to cook thanks to services like Sun Basketand Blue Apron. There’s really no excuse for getting all of your daily meals from a delivery guy. Can’t resist Chinese food? Get a wok and get to work. Having at least a handful of entrees in your repertoire will save you money and it’s the healthier way to go. It also prepares you for the day that you’re no longer just cooking for one.
BECOME A WINE CONNOISSEUR
Learning the ins and outs of the red, white, and rose is worth the time investment not only for yourself, but for the benefit of everyone who hosts you at their home. Gifting someone a good bottle of wine can work to your advantage socially, romantically, and possibly even professionally. So maybe think twice before grabbing another bottle of Two-Buck Chuck.
BREW YOUR OWN BEER
Every beer lover has fantasized about doing it. It’s just one of those things that requires a bit of effort and usually ends up staying a fantasy as life tends to get in the way. You can find brewing kits all over the internet and everything tastes better when it’s homemade.
LEARN TO PLAY AN INSTRUMENT
This is something to try while you’re living alone. You’ve played Guitar Hero. You’ve played air drums to “In the Air Tonight.” Why not turn that imaginary talent into the real thing? You don’t have to go off and join a band, but it’s always a good thing to explore your creative side.
DATE AROUND
All of the dating apps out there offer opportunities to expand your social horizon. The field is bigger than its ever been and you should take advantage of that. Every bad date can be a learning experience to guide you toward what you’re actually looking for.
