Do you ever decide to go for an unplanned stroll? Like you’re going through your day and suddenly decide to just step into the scenery for a few minutes?
A few weeks ago I wrote a story called “Take the Walk”. (If you’d like to read it, here’s the link.) It was my realization that busy is simply a matter of perspective.
The day before we left for vacation, Little Bit and I were in town and it was the most beautiful sunny day. He suggested going for a walk and we didn’t because we had all this stuff to do. In my story, I share my lessons learned by not going for a walk that day.
Yesterday, we were back in town. Guess who suggested a walk again? This time, I threw busy to the wind.
Our little town did not disappoint. It’s full of history and beautiful things to see. You wouldn’t believe the fun we had, when this time we took the walk.
I love my morning walks and just taking in all of the early birds and the sun peeking through the clouds before the day gets going. Thanks for taking me around your gorgeous little neighborhood. Felt like I was right there with you. xox :)

Love the sculpture, and the beautiful clouds. We see so much when we walk mindfully. :) Thanks for sharing, Jessica. xx

I love what you said: mindfully. :) That’s exactly what we did on that walk. We noticed. Thank you for reading!

Lovely photos! I started to squeeze in 2 daily ‘walks’ in spring last year. I initially did it to avoid the rush hour on the train – but now I wouldn’t even dream of going back to my old, regular commute.
So what I basically do is get off the train at a certain station (the train’s not that busy at that point), and then I walk to my place of work from there. It’s a 20 minutes walk (18 minutes if I’m rushing). So I can avoid the crowds and I don’t have to change trains at all (otherwise I’d have to change trains twice). It’s a really nice walk because it’s near the water, I can see and hear the seagulls, and the road isn’t too busy. I love it!
