Michaela Stone Cross is a writer, adventurer and international traveler from Philadelphia, USA. She enjoys finding ways to live exclusively off of potatoes so that she can afford to spend all her money exploring strange places strangely.

If it’s warm out and you’re looking to get a break from the city, head out to Belle Isle to get some sun, sunset and sand. During the summer this is where people go to swim and have ice cream, to throw barbeques or just hang out. If you rent a bike ($15 for two hours) you can bike around the island, which I would definitely recommend. You’ll get a great view of the sun setting on Detroit as well, so enjoy.
