Turning 21 is such a big deal, and it’s often seen as the last major celebration before diving into real adulthood. While you definitely want to enjoy the festivities, it’s also a good idea to start thinking about setting up an emergency fund as a responsible step into adult life. So, go ahead and celebrate your new legal drinking age to the fullest. For an unforgettable 21st birthday (once you’re clear-headed again), consider booking a trip to some of these exciting cities that are perfect for both new and experienced drinkers.
