April SEPTAdventure
Hey SEPTAdventurers! This month we travelled to historic Philadelphia to check out the Museum of the American Revolution. This museum just opened its doors April 17th, so it’s one museum you’ve definitely never been to before! Tickets are only $17 for students if...
March SEPTAdventure: The Philadelphia Flower Show
Hello SEPTAdventurers! We have finally made it to spring! What a weird end to winter, huh? It felt like that Katy Perry song, Hot n’ Cold! Anyways, I hope that you all had a chance to visit the Philadelphia Flower Show during that particularly cold two weeks...
January SEPTAdventure: Restaurant Week
Hey there SEPTAdventurers! It’s the last week of Restaurant Week! If you aren’t familiar, Restaurant Week involves over 100 top notch restaurants in Philadelphia that offer a prix fixe, 3 (or more) course menu for only $20 to $25 for lunch $30 to $35 for...
December SEPTAdventure
Hello SEPTAdventurers! Hopefully finals are over or coming to an end for you college kids, and winter break is coming soon for you high school kids! I, personally, never feel in the holiday spirit when class is in session, so we decided to go on a holiday spectacular...
November SEPTAdventure: Franklin Square Holiday Light Show
Hello SEPTAdventurers! It has finally started to feel like fall outside over the weekend. The temperature has dropped, leaves are being whipped through the streets, and snow has even begun to fall! To get in the spirit of the holidays, we travelled to Franklin Square...

August SEPTAdventure
Hello there SEPTAdventurers! It doesn't matter if you've lived in the city your whole life or now find yourself living here for college-- Philadelphia is a beautiful place. I know that every time I take regional rail home to Germantown, I peak out my window when I get...
March SEPTAdventure: The Magic Gardens
Brace yourselves. Spring is coming! The 20th of March was the first day of spring, and the change of weather has been soooo nice. These warm days that we’ve been having in Philly has made me want to get outside! Even the flowers want to get out of the ground and enjoy...
February SEPTAdventure: Basset’s Ice Cream
This past weekend we finally had warm weather! Although I did enjoy the powdery wonder that is snow, it got real old real fast. Snow days are a thing of the past once you’re in college, and the mounds of snow everywhere loses its appeal when you have to trudge through...
December SEPTAdventure: Cake and the Beanstalk
December—the month of finals and holiday mayhem. The days are growing shorter while your to-do list grows longer. With final projects, finals to study for, and holiday gifts to buy, it seemed natural to hold our December SEPTAdventure at a coffee shop to prepare...
SEPTAdventures: November 2015 Edition
As the weather turns bitter and finals approach, nothing seems more appropriate than to kick off SEPTAdventures with some soul-warming diner food. The Trolley Car Diner and Deli, my favorite Philly diner, is part of SEPTA Pass Perks. If you have a SEPTA independence...
