Only 30 minutes up the road from Raleigh is Durham, named the "tastiest town in the South". Durham is also famous for Duke University and Durham Bulls' baseball. We also love the inclusive, entrepreneurial spirit of Durham.

We chat about our recent staycation in Durham with our top recommendations on things to do - even if just on a one day trip! 

We explore art, culture, and of course food and drink! Cool wine bars and frozen custard ahead.
