My ex owned the last car I drove. She did not have a license, so I was pretty much the only person to ever drive in the house. Now I’m out of her house, so no more car. I’m walking everywhere in an extremely car dependant area, there’s public transport it just sucks ass. However, I’m liking the walking. The more I do it, the less I even think about it. My ass is gonna look great, I can still get pretty much everything I care about within walking distance, life is good.
Walking rules. There’s so much you get to experience at that speed. bugs and critters, people’s gardens, just people, smells, birdsong, just the weather!
Plus yeah, it’s great mild exercise. I’m also a believer that walking does something really good for our cognition because we grew up as a species doing it so much.
I agree. Some of the brightest most creative people in history took walks as part of their daily routines. I think it’s a great way to reset the brain and get in touch with your surroundings and your body
