It’s a great way to get some ideas and avoid whatever it is you’re supposed to be doing right now. Things I’m supposed to be doing but am avoiding by engaging with Thrillist content include: staring into the fridge until I have an idea, going viral on TikTok for being charming but also low-energy, and learning a new language using only my intuition. Today’s stories? Fuhgeddaboudit. We’re talking Wales, grass jelly, the Costa Rica digital nomad visa application process, the great barrier islands of Texas, and last but not least, a trailer for the new Harley Quinn movie. I’m off to pursue another goal for the day (getting physically fit without moving or changing my diet). Bye! [-Ned Riseley, Senior Copywriter]( [ [( travel [] [Wales Is Calling You…]( …The only thing is, it’s calling you in Welsh, which can be difficult to decipher. Don’t take my word for it, just look at this town name: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. Nevertheless, we have determined all the most exciting things you could be doing in Wales right now, the country that produced Catherine Zeta Jones. Wales is a magical place, like something out of a fairy tale, and there are a lot of castles and magical locales to explore.

The most refreshing summer treat is grass jelly, a traditional Asian refreshment that tastes herbal, cools you off, and can be enjoyed in many different forms. Learn more about this delightful snack, its history, and where to find it.

I hear the application has a question asking if you are “chill and fun” and another that asks if you have ever considered getting a tree of life tattoo. Just kidding! It’s more straightforward than that.

Someone needs to get in touch with their PR team and let them know that they’re getting totally overshadowed by rodeos and BBQ. This article looks at the barrier islands of Texas on the Gulf of Mexico coast, which each have their own personality and style. Galveston is kind of like the oldest, most responsible one. Matagorda is the wild free-spirit one that’s always going to music festivals and has a boyfriend who doesn’t talk. Wait, I don’t think I’m doing a very good job painting a picture; I’ll let the article explain.
