SCROLLING AROUND ON GOOGLE MAPS

fun, aimless, relaxing way to learn about our world! i love taking a 5 minute trip to são paulo or geneva or hanoi on my computer! or you can just drive around and stumble upon things like a deer eating lunch 😌

Taking yourself on architecture tours

If you look closely at Google maps, you’ll notice there are often historical landmarks and architectural marvels marked. Pick a neighborhood you don’t frequent that often and take yourself on a little adventure there. From cool views to cool houses, there’s so much to see and explore. Plus it’s free.

In our time

amazingly calming to spend 40 minutes listening to three experts talk about anything from tang dynasty poetry to supernovae under melvin bragg’s sure handed and only slightly cantankerous guidance.

with apologies to vego, vegan, and kosher peeps, this hot, calabrese pork sausage—really more of a paste—is incredible. spread it on toast and have fried eggs on top. dissolve it into a bit of oil for a quick pasta sauce. the possibilities are endless.
