The summer may be (almost) over, but with a bit of creativity – and Potje – you can keep that holiday feeling alive without it costing much.

The transition from summer to autumn can feel a bit bittersweet. The long days give way to shorter evenings, school and work start again, and the rhythm becomes more structured. But that doesn’t mean the summer vibes have to fade away. With a bit of creativity and a shared Potje, you can effortlessly take the energy of summer into the new season.

1. Mini-adventures with friends 🌍

For adventure, you really don’t need to go far. Plan a picnic in the park, cycle to a part of the city you’ve never been to, or organise a cooking night where you recreate your favourite summer dishes together.

Make it cozy with homemade snacks, challenge each other to find free events in the city or go for a walk together. It’s not about how much you spend, but about being together. That way, every mini-adventure feels like a mini-holiday.

2. Save now, travel later ✈️

Once summer ends, you can start dreaming about what comes next. A city trip in winter? A skiing weekend? Or an even better summer next year? Start saving now in a Potje, and make those dreams come true together.

Even small amounts count. Something small per week from everyone can ultimately be enough for transport, accommodation or activities. This way, you keep looking forward – and build something beautiful together.

3. Bring summer into your home ☀️

Holiday over? Bring the atmosphere to your living room! Make the dish you discovered on holiday, put on a summer playlist, light some candles, and relive those lovely moments.

Hang up photos, make a summer scrapbook or display souvenirs. It’s not about pretending you’re still on holiday, but about weaving those lovely memories into your daily life.

4. Look forward, not back 📅

Of course, you can look back on a wonderful summer. But it’s even more fun to start planning ahead. Start a new Potje with your friends for a spring outing, a festival, or just a fun weekend away.

Saving together gives you something to look forward to – and turns those ‘someday we should do this’ chats in the group chat into real plans.

💡 Finally

The summer doesn’t have to stop when the season ends. With mini-adventures, summery moments at home, and shared saving goals via Potje, you keep the holiday feeling alive all year round. It’s not about money, but about doing fun things together.
