Here are some of the things that you can do during this summer:
Go Camping or Glamping
Summer is the perfect time to go camping or glamping. Summer means there will be no rain, which means the grounds will not be soggy with rain water. Going camping means you will be away from the hustle and bustle of Jakarta, instead meeting with the quiet and serene nature. Glamping can also be an option, as there are many places that you can go for glamping even located nearby Jakarta.
Take a Road Trip
Road trip means a long road ahead that is filled with sleepless night, soreness and more. Give yourself some slack this summer by simply going a shorter trips. Y There are still plenty of chances to stretch your legs, sample the cuisine and sight see on the road trip.
Otherwise, A Staycation to Relax Yourself in
Other than going glamping to another destination, why not enjoy a night of staycation? These days, hotels (or even at home) are some of the most enjoyable places to stay. You can do a variety of things from giving yourself a DIY spa treatment, lounge on your back patio, go to the gym or take a swim. Whatever it is you do, choose something that will reinvigorate your sense before going to work.
Fireworks to Ignite Your Summer Spirit
This summer, enjoy your time by looking at fireworks with your loved ones. Fireworks does not have to happen during special timing only, but you can also spare time to have a fireworks show with your friends and family. If not on your own, you can find shows that provide fireworks for your enjoyment. At those events, you can just pack your blanket, lay back, and enjoy.
Find a Place to Swim
One of the most enjoyable activities during the summer is swimming. There is nothing like the feeling of cool water against the hot, shining sun. Indonesia, being a hot country also means that there are tons of pools available no matter what area you are in. It doesnβt even have to be a community pool, as many hotels have pools for you to dive with your friends.
Make Ice Cream

Have a Water Fight

Just get ready by wearing bathing suits or bringing a clean set of clothes to change after the water fight.
Enjoy a Game Night
Since most of your friends and family are coming together, why not plan a game night? Games are the perfect way to bring laughter and happiness into the house, as everyone makes plans to win or not laugh at a silly game.
