Young people’s obsession with starting the new year, so much fun without worrying about spending money

If there is any time of the year considered ideal for doing new things, it will surely be the beginning of the year. The fresh and bustling atmosphere of the early spring not only helps people feel more optimistic but also encourages young people to change or try something different.

So how are young people in 2024 energizing and refreshing themselves?

“Relaxing” in unfamiliar places

For travel enthusiasts, a camping trip or a trip to a distant place is an excellent way to start the new year.

Every January, Minh Man (a freelancer, Ho Chi Minh City) spends one week exploring a place she has never been to before.

“Traveling and experiencing things is an effective mental medicine that helps me relax and have emotions to return to work. This year, I went to Ha Giang and Cao Bang because I love the pristine beauty, the cold climate, and the rich cultural identity of these places. Although the time was short, I was able to check-in at many locations such as Ban Gioc Waterfall, Ma Pi Leng Pass, Tu San Alley, Lung Cu Flagpole, King Cat Mansion, etc.,” Man excitedly recounted.

Prior to the trip, the 2000-born man used his Techcombank card to pay for hotel rooms on Booking.vn because he could get a refund of up to 10%.

The benefits from the Techcombank payment card also allowed Hoang Huy (26 years old, Hanoi) and his family to have a complete and memorable trip to Nha Trang.

“Taking advantage of the good prices from Traveloka, I booked flight tickets, hotel rooms, and tickets for sightseeing and entertainment. I also made a list of famous dining spots so that on the day of the flight, my family just packed our bags and left,” Huy shared.

“Healing” through shopping

If traveling is considered a “spiritual medicine” for travel enthusiasts, then shopping is the “healing therapy” that helps shopaholics like Lan Nhi (25 years old, Lang Son) to quickly uplift their spirits. The PR staff feels happier and more fulfilled when buying her favorite items, especially after the intense year-end performance pressure.

“My belief is that the new year calls for new clothes. It can be clothes, jewelry, cosmetics, or simply some home decorations, kitchen utensils. Looking at those things motivates me to strive,” Nhi said when she just finished buying a bottle of perfume.

With benefits such as a 50,000 VND gift for orders over 500,000 VND on Shopee, a 10% discount on orders over 200,000 VND on Lazada, the Techcombank payment card helps Lan Nhi enjoy daily deals without having to wait for sales.

New opportunities from coffee meetings and parties

For many young people, the beginning of the year is the perfect time for them to renew close relationships that have been neglected due to work commitments or to expand their network and make new acquaintances. Linh Pham (29 years old, Hanoi) is one such person.

Talking about this, Linh said that having conversations and meeting new people brings her a lot of inspiration in both work and life: “At least once or twice, and sometimes 4-5 times a week, I will have appointments for dining or coffee with clients, partners, and friends. It’s not just about work, but it’s also an opportunity to learn, listen, and socialize.”

Frequent dining and coffee sessions, Linh actively chooses Techcombank’s partner locations such as Highlands Coffee, Starbucks, Golden Gate… because she can enjoy discounts. Thanks to that, the businesswoman can experience a wide range of quality products and services without worrying about emptying her wallet.

To meet the needs of customers’ enjoyable experiences and start a new year with great enthusiasm, Techcombank offers countless benefits in popular areas such as travel, shopping, transportation, car rental… In addition to the massive voucher warehouse, cardholders can easily manage personal finances, control monthly income and expenses through the Techcombank Mobile application without worrying about running out of money.
