Sometimes living in the tech world that doesn’t matter to most people, building things I can’t converse with others over because they’re not relatable to 99.9% of everyone, it’s nice to just go outside and walk around.

Seeing people interacting and living can be a real treat after a week of being stuck in some codebase absorbed by constructs that only exist to me.

I agree with you 100%. Life outside the terminal is pretty alive :)

I love this! Just the fact of walking with no purpose helps me think so much clearly. I often think a lot of my work gets done on walks. Sadly I don't do it enough.

You might find this app that someone told me about interesting: https://deriveapp.com/s/v2/about/

It helps exploring neighbourhoods in more spontaneous ways. It essentially gives you tasks (go to a crowd, follow a person with a dog, take a right on the next street). You follow it and then see where you end up! Always fun to discover places you would normally not visit.

Ah, this is cool. Thank you for sharing.

Highly recommend getting a dog to assist with this. I've never learned so much about my neighbourhood or explored as much as with my dog. Fido has to walk every day, and I get bored walking the same route.

So true. My dogs name is Scooter :) and sometimes he leads our walks haha!

Sing with me: these are the people of your neighborhood.
