Go and spend a day at the museums! See what the best ones are in the city and check them out.

British? Find a British Fish and Chip restaurant. Italian? Try and find a nice Pizza place. Check it out, complain silently and tell your friends back home how it doesn't compare!

Got your running shoes with you? Wake up early and go for a run. It is a fast way to see the city!

Fancy being a bit more sociable? Seeing as it is 2022, you could check out Tinder or other dating apps and see if you get a match. Go on a date!

Like to have a beer or two? Then find an organised pub crawl. If you can't find one, try contacting some hostels - they will often organise pub crawls that you can pay to join.

Find out what the local traditional breakfast is and order it in a cafe or restaurant. See if you like it!

Learn how to say 'please', 'thank you', 'I would like to buy a ...' and other basic phrases. Now go and try to use them!

Find a traditional indoor market (often they are easier to find on a Sunday). Try some local food, see what the locals get up to!

If you have been travelling for a while, it could be a perfect time to Skype (or Facetime) your friends and family back home.

Most cities have sports bars - go and find one (especially if a bit match is on). See what the atmosphere is like, and enjoy a game!

Couchsurfing isn't used just to find a free sofa to sleep on. There are almost always regular large meet ups (or people wanting to meet up in smaller groups) in big cities. Use it to meet other locals and tourists.
