Valentine's Day is approaching and even though we know we still have some time until February 14th, we can't help but think about how we will spend this day with our partner. Various romantic ideas are born in our heads, but we have to wait at least a little longer, because the global pandemic is unfortunately still ongoing, which means that our plans should remain reasonable and responsible.
This year, it will be best to replace dinner in a new, trendy restaurant with a more intimate, home-style version, which, believe us, can be equally, if not more, romantic. So let's be responsible and in love, because our creativity and innovation can easily replace all the expensive trips, gifts and grandiose gestures.
To that end, below we suggest some interesting ways you can celebrate Valentine's Day this year in the warmth of your (or your shared) home!
Treat yourself to a SPA evening together at home
This is a great activity for all those couples who like to relax with long baths or showers, who like massages, face masks, etc. Heat the apartment well, prepare a sufficient amount of hot water, buy candles and bath bombs (if you have a bathtub), dress only in bathrobes and enjoy a hedonistic day together. You can spend time together in the bath, then massage with scented oils and finally apply face masks, serum and cream. Your skin will thank you for these activities and you will definitely create an even deeper connection between you and your partner.
They order their favorite food and prepare a movie marathon
If you're one of those couples who are very into pop culture and spend most of their time soaking up all kinds of new content, this might be the perfect proposition for you two. Relax, forget about diets for a day and order your favorite food, drink or popcorn, curl up in bed and watch a marathon of your favorite movies together - preferably on a bigger screen or projector. In this way, you will create a real cinematic, as well as a romantic and intimate atmosphere, as you will show that you know each other well enough and enjoy each other's presence, even if you are not ready and arranged for an "official" date.

Swap a romantic dinner for breakfast
Breakfast is a very important meal - it can make or break your day. And whether you believe it or not, you can have fun swapping the classic romantic dinner, which you'll probably just fall asleep after, with an unusual breakfast that you plan ahead of time. Hide the groceries you're going to buy from your partner, then spontaneously start bringing one thing to the table for two. You can even order home delivery to make your life easier, and later just enjoy the breakfast waiting for you. You can choose sweet pancakes in the shape of a heart, with several different spreads or whatever comes to your mind - you know best what your partner likes and how you can surprise him! Believe us, no man remains indifferent to a good meal!
Prepare a "gift hunt"
If you want to have fun, it's time to play with the gifts you've already bought. You and your partner hide the gifts you have intended for each other from each other, and make a map in advance with mysterious markings of where the gift could be. This will be a fun activity that will raise the excitement and anticipation of the gift, and one that they are sure to enjoy! Whoever solves the mystery and finds the gift first can be the winner,
who gets a massage, dinner, etc. as a reward.

Dress up like you're going out
If you miss going out and don't want to spend another evening with a glass of wine and in sweatpants, you can pretend you're going to the most popular restaurant in town. Put on your make-up, put on your best sexy dress and the heels you keep for special occasions, and let your partner come dressed. Try to get ready in different rooms, so that you will not see each other until the moment of the date in the dining room or living room. Trust us, his knees will go weak when he sees you at your best!
