Bookworm's Retreat
This romantic date idea is perfect for book-loving couples who are looking to do something chill, indoors, and are on a budget. Spending quality time in a local bookstore, talking about favorite reads, exploring new books, and even reading together, makes up for a lovely date.
- You start your day by meeting your partner at one of Ekaterinburg's local bookstores. The first part of the date can be exploring the bookstore, turned into a mini scavenger hunt to search for books based on pre-set criteria.
- After the mini scavenger hunt, both of you can share and talk about your best finds over a cup of coffee at the bookstore's cafe. An in-depth discussion about favorite authors, books, and genres would make for some engaging conversation.
- Finally, pick a book to read together. Find a cozy corner in the bookstore and read with each other. Enjoy the pleasure of shared interests and the tranquility of simply existing in each other's company.
Preparation steps:
- Decide on a local bookstore in Ekaterinburg that both of you are likely to enjoy. Consider ones that have a wide variety of books and a comfortable ambience.
- Prepare a list of categories for your mini scavenger hunt. It can include things like a book from your favorite genre, a book with blue cover, a Russian classic, among other things.
- Wear comfortable clothes as you will be spending a good amount of time walking around and sitting in the bookstore. And don't forget to bring your reading glasses if you use any.
Some tips:
- A level of mutual respect towards each other's choices of books goes a long way in avoiding any potential conflicts or disagreements.
- Try to be open-minded and don't shy away from exploring new genres or authors that your partner may suggest. You might end up finding your new favorite book or author.
- In the end, remember, it's not a competition. The goal is to enjoy the experience, learn more about each other's tastes and preferences, and enrich your bond.
