Could be traveling to a new place, trying a new hobby, drinking a new flavor of la croix, reading a new book, going to a new restaurant, anything! And I want to document it too. Maybe I’ll start a blog? Make a scrapbook? Idk. If y’all know of anything I should try, leave a comment!

😃Just saying yes to everything and going for it under the guide that this is my one year experiment with no repercussions to see how my life will change when I actually do the things I want to.

🗺🚙 Drive to a nearby(ish) town you've never been to and visit a local business.
🎨 Use stuff you already have at home to make intentionally bad art (ex. a painting, collage, or even a poem).
🏛️ I bet there's something in your town/city that you've been meaning to do (like a museum or tourist attraction you've never been to or maybe a new coffee shop). Go visit it with a friend you've been wanting to spend more time with.
Variety is so important to the experience of life. Would love to know if you pick one of these and do it! :)

📍Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand.
Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever they’re selling, they’ll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream.
Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your barista’s name and tip them.
Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whatever’s trending on #booktok.
Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on.
When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you.
You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live.
P.S. Pay In Cash
