One thing I really regret not doing my first year was exploring the downtown area and other parts of Charlottesville more. Maybe I did not venture out as much because I was still adjusting to college and trying to figure out grounds, but I also had the mindset that since I did not have a car I would have to walk just about everywhere. However, the bus system and the trolley are extremely convenient for getting around. I am sure everyone knows how all the public transit works by now and have even gone downtown. But some of my most memorable nights have not been spent on Rugby. They have been downtown with a group of friends, grabbing dinner, exploring the street vendors and seeing what culture Charlottesville has to offer outside the tiny bubble of UVA. Do not get me wrong, hoo-ville itself is always a great place to hang out, but don’t be afraid to hop on the trolley and just see where it takes you. Even Barracks could add a little spice to your weekend if you just hop on the Northline.
