Who else is as excited as we are for 2022? It’s always a pleasant moment to start the new year around loved ones and people who make you happy. As expected, with a new year comes new goals, aspirations and expectations. That is why we have specially curated five things you and your partner can do together to start the new year with a bang!

Spend time together at home:

It’s the start of a new year, and we all know how long January can get. So stay at home together. You can set relationship plans for the year, pray together, or just avoid the hustle and bustle of town by getting lost in each other from the safety of your home. In case you’re worried about getting bored, DStv has got you covered with Catch Up, BoxOffice and Showmax, available free of charge to premium subscribers and at half the price to others. You can enjoy your favourite DStv channels from anywhere and anytime with the DStv app. 

Try out new recipes together:

Most people underestimate the power of the kitchen, when it can be one of the safest spaces in a home. In the New Year, you and your partner can spend more time in there together trying out new recipes. While you cook together, you can discuss pertinent matters that may have otherwise been tense, drink wine, crack jokes, and just enjoy each other’s company. With My Naija Plate on Honey TV and the countless shows on TLC, BBC Lifestyle, and Food Network you’ll have more than enough recipes to last you a whole year.

Make goals together:

Planning what the future holds together should be a top priority for both of you. As the year begins, you should each create individual plans for your careers, health, and life. then you should come together as a unit and plan goals for your relationship, family and kids (if you have any). Those goals should include things that cover every aspect of your life including your quality of entertainment. This could include things like what DStv package the family should aspire to be on in 2022. Then you can review your goals at the end of each quarter and be sure that you’re on the right track.

Go on dates:

Treating each other nicely and remembering why you fell for each other would help the relationship last longer, and a charming way to do that is to go on dates once in a while. You don’t even have to leave your house at all. A cute set-up with all the movies you need on DStv Box Office should do just the trick.

Have games night regularly:

Hosting a games night with friends and family would be fun to start the year. This season, DStv has reminded us repeatedly to #ChooseJoy above all things and what better way to start the year than on a good note with your loved ones by bonding, gaming, and having fun together.

There you have it! With DStv, you can be sure of quality entertainment anywhere, anytime. Visit www.Dstvafrica.com or download the My DStv App on Android or iOS devices for more information.
