5 things to do on Memorial Day Weekend when you have no plans!

Catch up on Work

Maybe you have a side hustle and you don’t get to work on it during the busy week?

Perhaps, you have a new home and you are decorating it: you can put some time into getting that taken care of on a long weekend.

Find Local Events Happening or take a Day Trip

Eventbrite, Thrillist and other sites are great resources for events happening locally — find something to do and make a day of it!

Hop in the car and drive to a scenic spot within a few hours—Big Sur, Lake Tahoe, or Napa Valley could be perfect Bay Area getaways! No set plans, just go with the flow and explore.

Rejuvenate with self care and Shop

Go to the gym (take a pilates or spin class and have a smoothie at the EarthBar after!)

Or sleep in – because that’s what three day weekends are for and then do a face mask, take a bath and put a hair mask on.

Or go to the local outdoor mall, enjoy some indoor/outdoor shopping and lunch. From a Starbucks to Nordstrom Cafe – there are so many activities at the mall!

I know shopping always puts a smile on my face!

Catch up on TV Shows

Game of Thrones anyone? The White Lotus – watch season 1 and season 2 if you haven’t then start season 3!

Maybe you didn’t watch the last season — start binging now! Or the new Netflix series: Dead to Me is funny and worth a binge watch (I am currently doing this!).

Get your Brunch On

Make brunch dates with a friend (or go solo) and try a new place in your area: brunch could be a whole day activity!

With that said: what are you doing for Memorial Day Weekend?
