One of the best ways to experience the national day of love as a couple is to take a trip. It doesn’t have to be an exotic vacation or an extended getaway. You can stay overnight in a local city at a hotel that always looked interesting, or plans a weekend at a resort in the Catskills that still has heart-shaped hot tubs in the guest rooms.
Or take a day trip in the car to some towns you’ve always been curious about visiting. The two of you may discover a favorite new restaurant or attraction that you can visit again.
Many spas offer massages and other services for couples. It is a great way to chill out together after a stressful week and enjoy a pampering service together.
Afterward, when you’re feeling refreshed and beautiful, you may want to check out your favorite local restaurant for a romantic dinner. Combining these two activities in one day is a great way to express your love with passion.
Is there a sport or activity that you and your partner have been curious about trying? Book a cross country skiing lesson, learn indoor rock climbing or take a sushi making class.
Learning a new skill together may help the two of you discover one more thing you have in common with each other.
Together can be a fun way to celebrate the holiday. It also shows your loved one that you care about them and their interests.
If your favorite band isn’t together anymore, buy a DVD of one of their performances and pick up some favorite snacks and beverages to enjoy during the show. If the two of you share fandom for the same band (or even if you don’t) giving tickets to a concert.
Surprise your valentine with a meal kit delivery service or wine subscription, and you’ll be giving a gift that you know both of you will love. A meal that you make yourself will strengthen your bond, while a different wine each month can be sipped and savored together.
