Sometimes, in our super modern extra-explored world, we forget that just because someone else has discovered something doesn't mean it's not fulfilling for you to discover it yourself. We also assume that just because no one goes somewhere--or it's not a tourist trap--that there couldn't be possibly anything worth looking for in that set of woods just beyond the town. I disagree.
If you find yourself with a lack of something to do, too much to do that's neither enjoyable or fulfilling, or you lack money to do what you may have planned, consider exploring. You can do this either alone--as a sort of retreat--or with someone else. But go off and look in the crevices of your town and find a secret spot to be alone at or to take the closest of friends. This activity is 100% free and, depending on how diligent you are and what you find, it's also rewarding.
A spot I found overlooking my small town in Colorado: Manitou Springs.
