You get off work, take the same route home for the zillionth time, and step into the familiarity of your cozy apartment. You trade your pumps for slippers, and while your leftovers are heating up in the microwave, you hear the comforting \u201chello\u201d of Netflix greeting you after a long day. And then you realize this routine is exactly what you\u2019ve done for the past five Fridays.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve lived in your city for a few years now, it\u2019s natural to feel safe and comfortable in your routine. Why try new things when you already <em>know<\/em> what you like? But sometimes it can be difficult to realize you\u2019re in a rut, let alone get out of it. If you\u2019ve been feeling like your daily activities have been a bit monotonous lately, read on for some fresh tips on how to fall back in love with your city.<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/photo-1468715163581-063a608701e1_0.jpeg\"><\/h2>\n<p>(Source:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/RJ-aKiGjpek\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unsplash.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Run a New Route<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Skip the fluorescent lights of the gym and hit the pavement for your workout instead. If you already run outdoors, you\u2019d be surprised by what you can discover just by going down a different path. Not only will you be getting some fresh air, but also a fresh perspective. Maybe you\u2019ll find an adorable new restaurant to come back to with your special someone, or a hidden gallery with a beautiful art collection. If you don\u2019t know where to start and want a more structured path, check out Runkeeper to find popular routes and neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<h2>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Play Tourist<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>How many New Yorkers have been to the Statue of Liberty? Or San Franciscans to the SF MoMA? If you\u2019re a long time resident of your city, chances are you haven\u2019t gone to some of the most famous landmarks, even if they\u2019re just a few blocks away. Grab a friend or a good playlist and head towards these inspirational places\u2013after all, they\u2019re famous for a reason.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/food.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>(Source:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/search\/food?photo=y3aP9oo9Pjc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unsplash.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Go on a Food Tour<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/acai-bowl-recipe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Food, glorious food<\/a>. Why is it that we always tend to gravitate towards the same five restaurants throughout the week? Maybe it\u2019s habit, or maybe it\u2019s just monotony. Either way, ditch that for a delicious adventure in search of some new favorite spots. If you need a place to start, check out food blogs or Yelp. If it feels like too big of a commitment to completely change your culinary habits, try picking a theme (e.g. ice cream&#8230;or donuts&#8230;or both) and spending an afternoon exploring the three most famous spots in your city.<\/p>\n<h2>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Take a Staycation <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Simply living in a different part of town can give you a brand new point of view. If there\u2019s a luxurious hotel in that trendy neighborhood you\u2019ve been lusting after, take the plunge and book it for just one night. Take a friend if you want to split the cost, and spend the afternoon relaxing at the hotel pool, and the evening exploring the area\u2019s restaurants and bars. If a hotel is too stuffy for your taste, check out Airbnb for the most unique listings around you. It could be a rustic tree house nestled near the woods, or a modern loft with a panoramic view of your city\u2019s skyline. Whatever your style, trying a staycation will remind you that no matter where you are there is always something new to try. By looking at your own city with fresh eyes, you\u2019ll come to realize that anywhere can be an escape\u2013<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/new-travel-trend-your-backyard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">even your own backyard<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover new places right at home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":278,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1317],"tags":[311,312,52],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 -
