anytime i am confronted w a large body of water i instantly turn so introspective and appreciative of my life... if u can visit the beach (even if its cold) or ride the ferry or cross the bridge or visit a park near one of the rivers and just spend some time there i think it could be a really soul enriching thing to do for free/cheap on your bday!! u can do this alone or w company. happy almost bday!!
Stay on a house boat for a short break. It will not be too comfortable I wonβt lie. But it is the perfect way to be close by to activities but secluded enough and peaceful so you can recharge and relax.
It really tingles the brain when you read a good story. I like short stories, memoirs and surrealism. and science fiction.
