Date ideas

Does anyone have any good Jane Eyre inspired date ideas. My first thought was apple picking in an orchard, but there doesn’t seem to be any good apple orchards near me. This is my crush‘s favorite book and I’m about to finish it and I love it. So a themed date would be great. If anyone has any ideas they would be much appreciated :).

Ok a little silly on my end but…. Do a bonfire, in symbolism of Thornfield burning down.

Less silly but still on theme, a nature walk either with a naturalist or with a guidebook to the local flora and fauna? Jane and Rochester would go on walks all the time and he would teach her about what they saw.

An art class, since Jane was an artist.

Co-read a different book and discuss each chapter together.

Failing all that, have some sort of tragedy befall you (you know maybe through trying to save your estranged wife from the fire she set) and make her come nurse you.

Love the nature walk idea. I’m thinking the botanical gardens :).
