asheville getaway guide 🌄

last weekend our entire friend group packed up everything and headed up to asheville, north carolina for a long weekend getaway! not to be dramatic or anything but it was truly one of the best weekends i’ve had in a very long time.

after work on thursday, all of us drove up to a beautiful cabin in tyron, north carolina just about an hour outside of asheville. friday morning we decided we were going to go into town and spend the whole day exploring asheville! we started off by walking in and out of local shops and stumbled upon this incredible mexican restaurant - mountain madre. y’all - not only was their queso ah-mazing but they had a mezcal tequila flight and guac flight! we decided to go with the guac flight and got the regular guac, spicy guac and bacon guac. they had a unique variety of guac flavors such as pickles! after we stuffed ourselves with delicious food, we walked a few blocks down to green man brewing! we hung out here for a few hours, drank beer and enjoyed the beautiful fall weather. after a few hours, we decided to head back to our cabin in tyron. saturday was spent in and out of the kitchen with our stretchy pants on because it was friendsgiving! i was in charge of the charcuterie board and i think i did it justice! the weekend came and went and sunday was a sad (and hungover) drive back to atlanta after spending the entire weekend with my best friends.
