this is just something that im curious about. the room i currently am sitting in is kinda small and really needs to be changed up because to be quite honest, its kind of depressing to sit in here some times. so lets see pics of the spot that you come home to just sit back and chill out with a beer!!

Edit: Sitting in my car and admiring it soothes me too.

My room is entertaining. But even better is my ground floor. I'm lucky enough that my parents let me have the main floor, so there's a tv, ps3, wii, a bar, darts, gt5 set-up, whatever.

But the most relaxing place, in my car. It's very relaxing to just sit there, music on, eyes closed. People think I'm crazy for spending money on the inside of my car but you spend more time inside than you'd think.

gotta say I had the same idea for a thread when I was high a few weeks ago but I got lazy.


My place: I go to the lake and stay at the family cabin. There's no TV, no internet, phones barely get a signal. Its about an hour and a half away. I go swimming or floating, hiking, take the boat out, etc.

When I can't go there I just enjoy going for a drive in any direction out of town listening to music.

Honestly, something like that would be amazing. Do cabins often go up for sale? If so, for how much?? The city is really starting to get to me and I really wanna have a place that I can just run away to for the weekend to clear the tubes in me head.

Walking my dog or sitting on a bench and watching my kid play at the park. Much more enjoyable when the weather is good.

When I had a motorcycle riding that was always a great stress reliever. If all goes well I should be back on two wheels this month.

The place I go when I need to relax is the gym with my ipod, hit the weights and the heavy bag. I'm the type of person that gets extremely restless when I'm just lying somewhere chilling.

Drinking a cold beer while taking a hot shower...works wonders. If it's a sunny day, I'll get up early, grab a coffee and take the dog to the beach. It's quiet, you get to hear the water and you can't help but smile watching your dog run along the beach with his tongue hanging out. Makes you forget about everything and lets you enjoy the moment.

Not really a place to relax but... For me it is jogging with headphones on. When the right song comes on and the right enough of endorphins is pumping through my system, it is almost like an ultimate zen/relaxation moment.

Me and friends rented a similar house last summer up the sunshine coast last summer. No cell reception, closest grocery store at 25 minutes away, it was amazing. Lake as your backyard, forest all around, all we did was lounge around and grill shit all day. Explore nature by day with friends, then party at night as loud as we wanted.

http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/7420/34343455519715288512505.jpg

This year we rented another house by 100 mile house for 8-10 people (6 hours drive!!!!) by the end of august, and we're really looking forward to it. I wanted to go back to sunshine coast this year, but ferry costs always increases your expenses by at least 100-150 dollars per person(i cant rmb if 100 dollars ferry was for both ways?).

If you got money to blow, why dont check out this house with elevators in kelowna, easily one of the nicest vacation homes i've seen :D

Pretty sure thats called the Runners High.

I used to get that often when I ran alot. Now, like someone has mentioned, I love relaxing at the gym with a pair of headphones. Other than that, blazing up somewhere, preferably walking the dog.

Sucks here though, because most of the time we only get endless light rain.. which is kind of depressing when it's overcast a lot.

Also, when I went up to Jones Lake for a day and found a little trail and was able to park my truck on the beach and put out a couple chairs and relax and not hear a sound.
