There’s nothing 20-somethings love more than a long weekend away. From beach trips to snow boarding excursions, young, single adults will gladly drive miles just to escape the crowded city. Going for a snowboard trip in up-state New York? Not to worry. As long as you have these four things, you and your guests will have the time of your lives.
1) Food, food, food
People love food, so if you’re going for a long weekend away with 20 people or more, then you need to make sure you’ve got food. If boys are involved you may want to double the amount your going to buy (boys are similar to garbage disposals, they eat everything). Buy fattening food, no one’s going to eat healthy on vacation (pasta, pizza, ice cream, the options are endless).
2) Entertainment
The most obvious aspect of a weekend away is entertainment. After hitting the slopes, your friends are going to want to have other activities to keep them entertained. From plasmas to chessboards, there’s got to be something else to do. Playing pool, watching movies and playing cards are the perfect ways to relax after an exciting day out and about
3) Alcohol
Nothing screams fun to a 20-something like alcohol and 18 close friends. Once night falls (or before, it’s your prerogative) break out your bottles of Grey Goose and start pouring. Drinking games are a must for any weekend excursion, so be sure to ask Siri where the nearest liquor store is (you’ll be making multiple trips).
4) A nice house
20 people in one place can be cramped, but what makes a weekend getaway even better is the house you’re staying in. From huge log cabins to wooden shingled beach houses, having enough room for everyone is pertinent for maximum comfort.
5) A domestic friend
The last thing you need is a domestic friend. While eating Ramen Noodles and Dominos pizza every night can be easy, having one (or three) friends who love cooking for everyone can make meals way more enjoyable. If your domestic friends cook, offer to clean. Now that you’re ready for your trip, relax and enjoy, it’s not every day you get to spend hours just hanging out with your friends.
