Pair of 25-Year-Old Besties Quit Partying and Discover a World of Hobbies That Don't Involve Alcohol

When you're in your early 20's everything becomes drinking activity. Do you want to go to the beach and hang out? Your friend bring a 20 pack of Truly. Do you want to enjoy a nice game night at a friend's house? Hope you practiced flip cup and prepared your body to consume this entire keg of beer. 

Some folks never grow out of their ‘I’m-21-let's-get-shwasted' phase, but one pair of besties have been exploring their non-alcoholic options lately on TikTok. Quite frankly, all of their activities look fun, wholesome, and quite honestly more memorable than some $200 night at the club. 

Hold up, hold up… See, this was the problem.

One good way to start a new hobby is to pick up a new sport. Marena and her best friend first embarked on their sober activity journey by slapping on swim caps and heading to their local YMCA for a quick dip. Although they realized almost immediately that swimming laps is insanely difficult, the entire process looked like a blast as they flopped their way through the entire episode with inexperienced silliness. 

Next the girls tried tennis…

It looks a little bit like one of the girls might pull a hamstring, but the spirit is definitely there. Out on the courts near Venice beach, the duo got some lessons from the locals, missed a few Ace shots, and definitely felt the Love on the court. 

Next, they dove in the ocean. For some, the beach may be a considerable drinking activity, but it certainly doesn't have to be. 

Like kids on vacation, they splashed in the waves and had a blast, making us all wish for the same alc-free joyfulness. To continue the saga, the girls hit the pier and dragged along a third friend for their next adventure: Fishing.

They fumbled with the hooks, got their bait stolen, and came back having caught nothing, but the trio seemed to thoroughly enjoy their sober day in the sun. Trying next experiences is half the joy of it all, right? Naturally, then they did the next adventure on their list.

They drove to Yosemite and hiked in the valley, like all good California girls do. 

Next on their list was another bucke-tlist item of flying a kite. Marena had never flown a kite and was anxious to learn. Although they literally had to Google how to get the thing in the air, they still had a great time. 

They certainly sent it soaring as best they could. Over the last three weeks, these two friends have done more than most of us can say in the last year. If that's not inspiring you to get out and touch some grass this summer, alcohol free, we don't know what will.
