Five choicy places to enjoy amazing vacation in Nigeria for 300k or less.

In today’s hustle culture, the need and importance of rest and relaxation should be more emphasized. According to the United Nation’s projections, the life expectancy for Nigeria in 2022 is 55.44 years, a 0.57% increase from 2021.
Besides genetics, insecurity, and other factors that are out of an individual’s control, other factors are a person’s lifestyle – adequate exercise, their diet, risky behaviours, and the amount of rest and sleep they get. The benefits of taking a vacation go beyond a person’s life expectancy. It increases one’s productivity, lowers stress levels, and gives better overall mental and physical health.
According to research published in the Journal of Happiness Studies, the ideal length of a vacation is exactly eight days. Researchers noted that a person on vacation will feel an increase of happiness over the first several days of vacation, with that feeling peaking on the eighth day and either plateauing or decreasing from then.
When planning to take a vacation, budgeting is necessary because it helps reduce superfluous spending. Deciding to take a short break to reorient yourself does not have to break the bank. Nigeria has quite a few tourist attractions that should be considered, making rest and relaxation possible in our own backyard.
