When you drive a car through a neighborhood, you really don't see much at all. But taking a long walk through the same neighborhood you notice so many interesting (and bizzarre!) things. Having a dog helps - they tend to push you out the door. But its so easy to get into a habit walking the dog and just circle the same route every time. I guess its about living life with intentionality and always looking for an adventure wherever you may be.

The thought does occur sometimes but when I get out there isn't much space to walk without bumping into people, cars, cycles, dogs and more things... I live in an Indian city. City people don't walk, sadly. Which is why I try to get away every month to somewhere where I can stretch my legs. I’ve never walked in my city for years now.
