  • Shared activity
  • Positive atmosphere
  • Attention to detail
  • Spontaneity
  • Focus on each other

It goes on to suggest you do something creative, cultural, relaxing and preferably in the great outdoors. 🤔 What to do when you live in Iowa and in January the outdoors are not always that great? 🥶
