As winter break comes to an end for many universities, it is always enjoyable to look back on what has put a smile on your face throughout break.

5. Give your pets hugs and kisses

No doubt your pets also miss you. They may even miss you more than your family does!

6. Take part in a getaway

Be adventurous. Enjoy your time off in an exciting way.
