Hi {{ first name }}
We love sharing local adventures that help you explore more without going far, and this one’s close to home and full of surprises…
We just spent 36 hours in Chapel Hill and Carrboro in partnership with Visit Chapel Hill, and WOW—this weekend getaway delivered!
We wandered historic UNC landmarks, cuddled rescue cats in a cozy café, biked through shaded greenways with public art, sipped cocktails under moose heads (yep, really), and finally tried the legendary BLT at Merritt’s Grill (spoiler: it lived up to the hype).
