I grew up in the city and finding quiet (and free) things to do made me fall in love with it.
Interior green belt loop (a lush walk under canopies of trees / blackberries)
Clipper Community garden (oasis of fruits and flowers and lemon)
theres a teeny garden by the Chaparral Country Corporation that is so sweet and filled with native plants. Gorgeous hidden spot with places to sit and think.
Hope someone enjoys these recs❤️

i volunteered at the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, which is often left out of the national park convo scene, but perhaps one of my favorite places on earth. and happens to only be minutes of a drive away from me. it was fun to meet new friends, flirt, be in nature, and just show up as myself untested. peak bloom is soon!

U don’t need to know everything about a person right away. That’s just avoiding actually feeling. Just enjoy being crushed and consumed by someone u find sexy.
