12 ways to be more adventurous (on the cheap)

Frugal fun makes life feel better

One of my favorite suggestions for people looking to have more fun in life is to plan one big adventure and one little adventure each week. A big adventure can take 3-4 hours (think half a weekend day). A little adventure could clock in at less than an hour, as long as it’s something out of the ordinary.

I find this cadence won’t exhaust anyone, but it makes life feel a lot more exciting.

Of course, one of the biggest objections I hear to this suggestion (which is Rule #7 in Tranquility by Tuesday, by the way) is that adventures can be pricey. And they can be! But they don’t have to be. Here are some ways to have a more adventurous life on the cheap.
