At The Moment
...some of my current favorites.
Spicy Vanilla Chai
The Hub: Reno, Nevada
An adorable little coffee shop called 'The Hub' sits right along the Truckee river, offering a handful of ethically sourced and delicious blends to start your morning (or refuel your afternoon). You will often find bicyclists, UNR students, local artists, tourists, and neighboring residents milling about the outdoor patio and Riverwalk. I am partial to the chai, but the joe is great, too.
Venetian Water Taxi Wine Tasting
Tahoe Tastings: Tahoe, California
The Venetian Water Taxi Wine Tasting in South Lake Tahoe is an absolute dream for anyone that enjoys wine and breathtaking views. The vibes are unreal (gen z, did I get that right?) as you cruise along the glassy waters, learning all about the surrounding area and the history of one of America's most-visited outdoor destinations.
Hot & Cold Therapies
Altered States Wellness: Coppell, Texas
As a temperature-sensitive individual, the idea of lowering myself into 39° water was mortifying. With the encouragement of a friend, I made the plunge. It gave me a noticeable boost in mental clarity and natural energy, along with building my mental fortitude. I highly recommend this treatment to anyone, especially those that are scared to try!
Scarborough Renaissance Festival
Ellis County Fairgrounds: Waxahachie, TX
Call me a nerd all you want; Ren Faires are a blast. You get to dress up, eat and drink for hours, watch duels and acrobats, peruse stalls for items you don't need, and sweat through every article of clothing. What could be better? I'll wait...
