Turning 30 soon, looking for bday suggestions – I’m honestly torn between my options below. Would love to hear what you guys did.
Context: I’ve spent this whole year already celebrating by doing trips, going international, endless events and shows. Not sure if I should keep it low key after my eventful year or finish with a bang at my favorite big city (Chicago, NY, etc).
Note: I’m a loner with few friends far away so no big house party possible. This would just be my GF and I, maybe brother.
Option 1; Low key (hike, staycation downtown in my “meh” city, visit nearby small town with winery)
* Pro: Cost effective, easier to plan, 2 nearby friends could maybe come, see nice fall nature views, can do it close to my bday vs weekend after.
* Con: Doesn’t scream 30th I guess? A bday ending with zero only comes ever so often, all my friends have done big trips and huge parties
Option 2: Do it big (visit a big city – NYC, Chicago, etc):
* Pro: City views and endless things to do, haven’t visited NYC in years
* Con: Pricy and I’d feel bad as my GF insists she pays most of it, visiting Vegas 2 weeks before so already get a similar experience? Brother likely can’t come, somewhat feeling over traveled but can muster up energy
