DC Reccs! I’m going to DC for the first time and would love some reccs. My search is two-fold: 1. Which museums/monuments are a must for two days of unlimited free time? 2. Cute,funky,chic,and cool coffee shops to work remotely from

Washington, DC
Visit

Worked here for years--it's the most perfect gem of a museum and the gardens are to die for. Now that we've moved back, I go weekly!

“This is the most beautiful pool in the world to me—it feels like you’re in Italy in the middle of DC. It’s magic. Just open to staff and fellows, I literally started working at the gift shop after college to get access to the pool and library… a true gem.”
