Sometimes traveling or part of it can be boring. You should do something very fast in such cases to make it more exciting and easy to remember. And it’s not very hard. There are different ways to surprise your friend during a trip and to make someone feel special. The surprises vary from person to person – many people like them, many don’t. If you think your friend won’t become insane, here, you will find our shortlist of top 3 surprises during a trip to make your beloved smile.
Surprise Number 3: Make a marriage proposal!
When in Paris, the weather is lovely, the love and the romantic are in the air. You and your beloved one are daydreaming, living the time of your life – it is a perfect moment to ask The Question. Is she/he going to be with you until the end? One question, a cheap ring or even without a ring, a two minutes’ monologue with the question at the end, and Voilà – you both will remember this trip forever. Eh, you might have to marry that person after that, but the proposal is not so hard. Well, it is another story if the answer is NO. Your holiday and relationship will end, but hey – it is better to know it now than in 10 years!
Note! Before making the surprising proposal take your time and do your homework! You must know your partner’s opinion about such events. Some people will be thrilled to be asked in front of the whole stadium. For others, the proposal in front of many people can be a reason to end the relationship, so be careful! Do not use this as a way to break up – do not underestimate your partner! Do you hate her/him enough to break up using a marriage proposal facing 10 000 strangers? Be prepared for a YES and a wedding so that you will pay during your entire upcoming miserable life…
Surprise Number 2: Reveal the truth about your millions!
You know each other for enough long time, you like each other, you might even be in love. You know your friends, your families, your dreams, and your fears. It is not your first trip, not in the first class, but you genuinely enjoy the time spent together.
Lying in the sun and drinking cocktails discussing the “social conflict” in the studies of Heidelberg, the String theory, or just the stupid screaming children running around: It is like the perfect moment to tell about the diskette you have to check. OMG, a diskette? What year is it today?! Who uses them at all?! Not only today but also in the last 5 or 10 years?! Yeah, but you have just remembered the most important thing in your life – you have a diskette you haven’t checked for about ten years, with a thousand Bitcoins stored on it… Oh, OK, tell me more about it!
Revealing your true identity as a prince from Zamunda might not be with the happy end as in the movies! So be cautious where, when, and how to give this info to the people.
Sharing the story about the millions of euros you inherited a quiet time ago from an unknown uncle of yours should also be carefully considered. Nowadays you can’t trust your new friends from the beginning with such information, which is why you have waited for this moment.
Of course, such info changes a lot of things, but let’s say it: It is going to be a lovely surprise if you say, “Oh, you know, I unexpectedly received a couple of billions of dollars. I am planning to travel the world. Would you like to join me? Of course, I will pay for your trip as I appreciate the short notice…”
A very different reaction will bring a sentence like, “Oh, you know, I have a couple of billions of dollars. And I am planning to travel the world. What do you think of that girl/boy we met yesterday at the hotel? I am thinking of inviting her/him to join me…”
Surprise Number 1: Bring food!
Let’s face it – nothing can compare with the food. But, of course, the surprises can vary. It depends on your time to prepare, budget, travel destination: you can bring homemade sandwiches or pastries for your long train travel. Or you can reserve a table for a 10/12/19-course tasting dinner in a Michelin-starred restaurant. Buying your girlfriend one of her favorite chocolate bonbons or bringing your boyfriend the best waffle from your hometown could be an adorable gesture. At least, we hope so. If your buddy doesn’t appreciate your efforts, time spent, and expectations, consider your relationship, goals, what you seek in life, etc. The good food is to be shared!
Packing a banana, nuts, or cupcakes is an excellent way to say you like your buddy (Of course, unless your buddy is not allergic to them.) Don’t kill them with food, please! We hope none of our readers is planning such a thing, but if you are and you are reading this – STOP! Don’t waste the food! Maybe the saddest thing you can tell your ex-buddy might be, “I will never bring you food again!” (Oh, it is even hard to write it!) They are going to be so dead inside, damn.
Let’s make it even worse with our bonus list:
Bonuses:
Negative surprises while traveling
-Confess about your other family, show pictures of your other dozen children. Always tell the one in the room he/she is the only true love of your life (be careful not to say it in front of witnesses.)
-Tell your girlfriend or boyfriend your parents are coming with you on vacation. As the apartment is for 4, it will be a loss of money not taking them with you… (Don’t say anything about it until the plane is already in the air!)
Positive surprises during a trip
-Bring a present – it makes a good impression if you remember birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Even make a new lovely anniversary as an occasion for the gift
-Take her/him to a particular spot for a kiss or to take the perfect picture of you.
-Be aware of where your hotel is and how to get there – Don’t get lost!
-Bring some homemade wine or other alcohol not to spend money on the expensive ones of the village you are staying in. If you are in Bulgaria, don’t miss trying some of our favorite local wines.
-Find her/his lost twin and arranging them to meet
-Buy tickets for opera, a dolphinarium or the city circus as a surprise present
-Bring her secretly a light jacket for your romantic walk late in the evening
-Always have surprises in your pockets
-Notice the giant public transport vehicle and rescue him/her from being smashed
-Make your beloved smile
Oh, there are so many ways to make your buddy feel special and to show your love. But it is always nice to know how your friend is going to react! So make sure to find it before spending time and money on something you will describe as a lovely surprise, but that will drive your buddy mad. Don’t make them mad! Unless they are going to be mad about you!
