Google Arts & Culture makes it possible to take Street View style tours of close to 1,000 different historical places all over the world. We’re not saying you’re going to get the full experience, but seeing as how you can visit all these places without ever leaving your desk, it’s not too shabby. What kind of places are we talking about? MoMA in New York. The J. Getty Museum in LA. The British Museum in London. Uffizi Galleries in Florence. The Rooftop of the Grand Palais in Paris. Machu Picchu in Peru. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia. And now, Google Arts & Culture has expanded its focus to include Street View walkthroughs and images of street art and now-closed exhibitions. Banksy. The Floating Piers. Paris’s 13th arrondissement exhibition. The Berlin Wall. You can explore it all from the comfort of your own home, so say goodbye to your free time for the next few days.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
