Shorten "Urlaub auf Balkonien" to "Balkonien" only. Everyone will know what you're talking about.

And I don't think it gets any shorter It is already shorter than staycation. Come on, for German language "Urlaub auf Balkonien" is not long.

I've never heard "Heimurlaub", but "Heimaturlaub" is a common word. However, it means something different: Edit I do not know whether it is meant joke but there is also another word, similar to Balkonien. Ad Infinitum 3, 6 I will explain 'Balkonien' and 'Terrassien' shortly. The first word comes from 'Balkon' engl. The next one is coming from 'Terrasse' engl. Both words are somehow made up [words] tho being in the duden.

In my knowledge those saying were common before and more used in the east. Tom-OliverHeidel Thank you very much for your addition.

Things to Do

No, I am not German: Accepted as an answer, although "Hierlaub" and the other suggestions by Crissov are also very nice. But this is not used too often. Mostly we would just say: Wir fahren nicht fort. I would disagree that "Balkonien" is seldomly used. I hear it very often and not just as joke but as an idiom. SBI nice - I guess it doesn't get any shorter than that.

Keen to keep up the momentum after returning, he immediately set the goal of training for a marathon. This forces him to devise new running routes around Berlin, where he lives, to meet the distances that training requires. So, it's the perfect combination of physical activity and novelty.

You may change your life. Or an element of it. And that could feel like a holiday. You could, of course, try to recreate a dish you particularly enjoyed on holiday. But it is easier to pick one new ingredient to use each week. Up the ante by making your novelty ingredient seasonal. If you walked out early for fresh bread while you were on holiday, find a baker near your home that can offer something similar. It can be hard to replicate the awe inspired by the Grand Canyon or Mount Fuji back home, but awe is an experience of degree. Try to get outside.
