Living in Goa – India, offers you a lot of privileges. One of them being huge backyards all to yourself. But are you making the most of your backyard?
Every yard, however big or small, is filled with the opportunity to entertain and relax. If your backyard is not being optimised to its fullest potential, read on as we at The Woodpecker Goa, suggest you on how to make the most out of it.
Clean Up
If your yard is crowded with trees and brush, it will be difficult to utilise. Sometimes all you need is a small space for grilling and lounging on your favourite outdoor furniture.
Keep this space free from leaves, sticks, and debris. Collect large sticks, trash, branches that are sticking out from trees, and dead plants and flowers for an instant yard makeover.
Consider functionality.
The functions that we think are most obvious: relaxing and entertaining. But, perhaps you want more than that. Some fun functions to consider:
- Sports and exercise – a place for volleyball, a trampoline, outdoor gym, rock climbing, or even a racetrack.
- Water fun – a pool, slip and slide, or a place for water balloon fights.
- Gardening – grow your own tomatoes, herbs, watermelon, or plants to complete your outdoor space. The possibilities are (almost) endless.
Choose a style
The indoors of your home may be coastal, rustic, modern, minimalist, traditional, old century, industrial, country, or something else, which are all styles that can be incorporated into your yard.
Make time to enjoy it!
Life gets busy, but if you are lucky enough to have a backyard, make time to use it. Have friends and family over for a party, take your dog out for a game of fetch, garden, read a book on your favorite outdoor chair – do something you love to enjoy the space!
The style you choose should work hand in hand with the function of your yard.
