With a garden by the sea, don’t stay indoors!

21 de February, 2020

Spring is yet to arrive, but on the most eagerly awaited day of the week, we bring you some sunny news! That’s right, over the next few days the sun will be out and the temperatures will be especially warm to welcome it! And if you had already planned to stay at home this weekend, maybe we can change your mind after reading this text.

As far as the eye can see, green mountains, rolling plains and vibrant cities: the diversity of our country’s landscapes is immense and we Portuguese are lucky enough to be able to enjoy it all without having to go far! The best part? The sun smiles on us for around three thousand hours a year!

After this description, it is at least unexpected that Portugal is behind countries like Finland and Denmark when it comes to outdoor activities, don’t you agree?

How about helping us reverse this trend?

This weekend, take advantage of the good weather, recharge your batteries and let your body absorb all the Vitamin D that the next few days have to offer! The options are varied, take a look:

  • If you live by the coast, how about going to the beach? Did you know that the beach has many benefits for your health? And no, you don’t need to go in the water, just the smell of the sea is enough to improve your respiratory system!
  • If you live in a more inland area, contact with nature is still a great option! Why not have a picnic in a green area? Believe me, the stress levels accumulated during the week will evaporate in no time!
  • And finally, if you’re an avid lover of movement and fun, a terrace in the city center is undoubtedly a sure bet for a good laugh! Did you know that social interaction helps the brain to develop fully? Well, you’ll hardly find a busier place than the city center on a sunny weekend!

Have we convinced you yet? Perhaps you need a little more encouragement… In fact, although the sun is a powerful ally for your physical and psychological well-being, we understand that, with all these walks, your tummy is starting to give out. Don’t worry, all our suggestions leave room for a long lunch, the kind we all enjoy on a Sunday. If you’ve ventured into a more unfamiliar area, don’t despair, the MyEdenred APP shows you all the restaurants near you where you can use your Euroticket Refeição.

So there are no excuses! Take advantage of all the sunshine this weekend has to offer and start the week full of energy, a sense of humor and, of course, a full belly!

Starting from July 2023, the Euroticket Refeição benefit has been renamed Edenred Refeição.
