Mother-Daughter Trips To Add To Your Bucket List
Despite general differences, mothers and daughters can have plenty of quality time together while taking a fun trip. There are so many destinations that can appeal to just about any mother and daughter.
Trip To The Big City: NYC
Of course, when it comes to culture, almost no other city can touch New York City. Research any interesting pop ups, Broadway shows, art exhibits, and anything in between, and try to go to as many as possible. You can book a VIP pass through Get Your Guide so you can skip lines and make the most of your time.
For The Outdoorsy Types: Sedona
If the two of you do your best bonding while hiking, then look no further than Sedona, Arizona. The sights are absolutely beautiful, and you can hike your way through all of the beautiful formations and red rocks. There are trails suited to every level, so you can find what suits you best.
Trip For Foodies: Chicago
If food is the main thing that you and your mom can bend over, Chicago is a great city for you. Of course, you must try deep dish pizza, but there are plenty of other delights to experience as well. It’s home to several Michelin star restaurants like Alinea, HaiSous Vietnamese Kitchen, Girl & The Goat, Galit Restaurant, The Publican, Oriole, and Monteverde.
Star Searching: Los Angeles
If the pair of you love the charming of Hollywood, then of course you should head over to Los Angeles. You can take a walk on Melrose and perhaps even run into a film star or two. Visit Craig’s, a hotspot and favorite for celebrities like Kate Upton and Kim Kardashian. You can also visit Pendry West Hollywood if you want to try to spot some stars.

【推荐2】Summer is always a busy travel season, but even at peak times like July, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll see lots of hotels with No Vacancy (空房) signs. More and more travelers are choosing instead to stay in vacation rentals: decorated private houses, rooms, or apartments that only you and your party share for the period of your stay. Or you can get adventurous and book a cabin, a tree house, a houseboat, or even a castle.
The idea appeared in 2007, when Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia, the owners of a hotel, realizing that a San Francisco tech meeting would make hotel rooms in the area harder to come by, let travelers sleep on air mattresses (充气床垫) in their apartment for a fee. They called it Air Bed and Breakfast, and the company—now known as Airbnb—is worth almost $100 billion today and has six million listings worldwide.
More space is a major attraction of this accommodation (住宿): the average hotel room measures just 330 square feet, while the average vacation rental room tops 1,300. And in 20 of the largest U. S. cities, average daily rates are comparable to (or slightly lower than) those of hotels.
If you’re willing to share your own digs while you’re away, Love Home Swap pairs you with like-minded travelers for stays in each other’s homes for a membership fee as low as $ 11 per month. If you’d like to list your home, check your local zoning laws, as some areas have strict rules on short-term rentals. In parts of Honolulu, a new law taking effect in October will up the minimum stay to 90 days.

【推荐2】Starting a new book can feel like a bit of a commitment, but it doesn’t have to be! Here are four books you can read in a single day.
The House on Mango Street
Released in 1984 and written by Mexican-American author Sandra Cisneros, The House on Mango Street is only 103 pages long. It’s a rapid read for those looking to dip their toes into the water, but it still deals with complex themes and important subject matters including language, race, ageing and troubles.
The Midnight Library
The Midnight Library from the English author Matt Haig was released in 2020. It’s 288 pages, which makes it a little more challenging but still absolutely doable in a single day. The novel is all about storytelling, with Nora Seed exploring the “what ifs” of her life.
The Perilous Life of Jade Yeo
Released in 2012 and written by the fantastic Malaysian-English author Zen Cho, the page count is an extremely manageable 76 pages, which makes this another effective first read in one day. The novel is set in London in the 1920s and follows the life of another writer, Jade Yeo. There is even enough time for readers to appreciate a film adaptation of the book after reading it.
Stardust
The 1999 novel by English author Neil Gaiman is a perfect presentation of the writer’s fantasy stylings at their best. Stardust, which became a major motion picture, sits at 256 pages. It’s epic in its scale, but the reader can fit the novel into a single day, giving them a true sense of absolute escapism to the fantasy land of Stormhold.
