One of the best things about Hampton Roads is being able to explore some of the cool spots available throughout the seven cities. One place that’s super chill to grab food and great coffee is a local spot called Cure. Once upon a fall weekend, (before the current pandemic became a thing that changed all of our lives) a friend and I grabbed a bite there and decided to hang out in Norfolk for the day. We strolled through beautiful and quiet cobblestone streets, took in the sights of some gorgeous homes, and went to the Slover Library, which was unbelievably gorgeous and filled with so many books, cozy reading areas, and people watching spots. I seriously felt like a kid in a candy store. It was a weekend well spent and one I thoroughly enjoyed. Although the year is coming to an end and we’ve all faced major changes and challenges, I hope you take some time to reflect on past fun weekends you’ve had and can find some cool and creative ways to enjoy your weekends moving forward. Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy yourself.

We chilled at my place a few times, had a few phone conversations, and exchanged occasional texts, but eventually he stopped responding to me
