It's that time of year again! Whether you love it or hate it, Valentines Day is in the air. In previous years I have either used it as an excuse to by myself something or gone "ugh" at the mention of it. But it's funny how things change when you find the right person to spend time with.
I'm always on the lookout for fun things to do and memories to make. The great thing about living in the Southern Hemisphere at the moment is that we are still in summer, which is the perfect season for getting out and about. I've also included lots of ideas on this list for colder nights as well (which are always nice and cozy anyway.) Whether you use them for Valentines Day or just any date night with your significant other, these are some of my favorite things I wanna try.
Pick a movie series each and have a marathon with lots of treats
Got to a farmers market and pick out some food for a picnic
Try different breakfast spots in your town/city
Go indoor rock-climbing
Grab some takeaway food and find a good spot to watch the sunset
Find pop-up movie venues and cuddle under a blanket
Go out for a late-night hot chocolate
Race each other at go-carting
Have a beach day! Go all out with food and games
A make-your-own pizza night
Find a haunted-house tour
Check out local festivals (especially the food and comedy ones!)
Go for a spontaneous drive and see where you end up
Make a blanket fort, order pizza, and watch Netflix
Go out for milkshakes (or create your own)
Have a couples bowling night
Write a list of food places you want to try and tick one off every month
Go for an icy gelato on a hot day
Try a fitness class together or find a hiking trail
Watch each others favorite movie
Make food together then go out for a picnic
Be tourists for a day in your own city
Put up a tent and camp in your backyard together. Watch the stars and set up a camp fire
Netflix movie night with chocolate fondue (or make smores)
Check out a comedy show
Create a scavenger hunt for each other
Have a water gun fight on a hot day
What's your idea of the perfect date? I think a day at Disneyland would be mine. Rides, churros, and the firework show...perfection!

Spending the day out doors is such a good idea overall, gets everyone off their phones and spending actual time together! Great post :)

I agree! I love getting out of the house and away from our phones. My bf and I will quite often drive to the beach for ice cream and it's always lovely :)
