The same holds true for these date night rituals. Find one or two (or more!) that feel right for the pre- cious time you\u2019ve set aside to be together. Taste new foods, go dancing, give each other a home spa treatment, say yes\u2014to each other, and to making the most of these moments. Doing them once a month or even annually adds new layers of mean- ing and fun to any relationship and fortifies a bond when the going has gotten a little tougher.<\/p>\n

Going on a Crawl On a long-ago trip to Barcelona, my husband and I discovered the joys of tapeando, which is a term Spaniards use for their custom of traveling from bar to bar to eat tapas and drink. It was delicious to wander the streets late at night, tasting and ranking our favorites\u2014gambas al ajillo, patatas bravas, croquetas. Back home in New York, going from spot to spot has become one of our favorite ways to spend a night together. Rather than sitting in one restaurant, we can be on the move, discovering more about our city.<\/p>\n

Likewise, you can enjoy a crawl ritual of your own without boarding a plane. And it doesn\u2019t have to be tapas. The Brits gave the world the pub crawl, which many Americans replicate by visiting vineyards or drinking craft beers at local bars. Truly, the idea is infinitely customizable\u2014pick a type of food (dim sum, tacos, pizza, cupcakes) or drink (IPAs, wine, sangria). Or you could focus your date around other interests like art, records, or vintage clothing.<\/p>\n

Events like SantaCon and zombie crawls get lots of attention, but your adventure needn\u2019t be a big organized affair\u2014in fact, you might prefer when it\u2019s just the two of you or a fun group of friends, exploring a new destination or your hometown while spending time together. Date Nights | 55 Some suggestions to make your crawls run smoothly: \u2022 Limit your stops to around five, so you\u2019re not rushing and can linger at each destination.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Create an itinerary beforehand to eliminate the awkwardness of wondering where to go next (of course, if someplace catches your eye, pop in!). Take it a step further by keeping \u201ctasting notes\u201d of what you ate and your favorite items, or drawing a little map of your journey. While I often recommend keeping experiences device-free, you could have a private shared social media account for just the two of you where you can post about your stops. \u2022 Make it a walkable affair, if possible, so you can meander luxuriously from stop to stop, working up your appetite along the way.<\/p>\n
