Especially with the coronavirus pandemic, most countries locked people down, and people have had the experience of staying at home for so long. Especially in big towns, people were definitely not used to staying so much at home.
However, this experience has taught all of us an outstanding lesson: A different lifestyle is possible!

Here are the 10 best online activities for fun at home!
1. House party application
House party is a mobile application designed to let people meet online and spend time together. The logic behind the app is as the name of it might give a tip, a house party. People grab their drinks and go in front of their mobile phones to meet their friends and have fun. The app even allows you to play games together. So it is really a house party!
Since it is a house party, do not forget to lock your room or you might have some more random visitors to your party.
2. Not Netflix but Popcorn
Most of us are already aware of the online video streaming channel Netflix. However, you need to pay a membership fee, and they have limited choices for both series and movies. In the case that if Netflix hasn’t bought the copyrights of production, you are not allowed to watch on the platform.
Popcorn, on the other hand, is a more accessible tool to find almost any movie you’d like, even though they have fewer subtitles for every language or in some cases they might not work correctly. However, the best part is that it is free!
You can prepare yourself a massive bowl of popcorn and enjoy your favourite movie on Popcorn.
3. Never without music
If you are up to spend some quality time at home, music is always the answer to this. You can either use Youtube or your own music tool to play your favourite songs and sit back and relax.
If you have your friends or family at home with you, it can get even better since you may dance together, have song competitions, and also try karaoke. You may find a lot of videos on Youtube with their karaoke versions.
Let the music bring joy.
You can also relax and just watch positive movies for creating better energy at home. See these movies if you cannot decide what to watch.
4. Learning a new language
There is no better way to spend your spare time to improve yourself, and one of the best ways to do so is by learning a new language. Plus, it doesn’t have to be old school and boring anymore!
