    Leave it to California to progressive, "woke," whatever you want to call it, but I think this is a great idea: Visit California has just launched a marketing campaign called Visit Native California to promote cultural tourism around the state's 109 recognized tribes: https://www.afar.com/magazine/visit-native-california-program-seeks...

    An interesting video put together by reknowned international "pickup" authority Steve Jabba about the top 10 cities for single guys to pick up girls.
