Exploring on Foot Is the Best Way to Immerse Yourself in a New City
“Oh, the places you’ll go.”
― Dr. Seuss
Walking is a wonderful way to explore a new city, town or region. Walking is free to do and is the most accessible outdoor sport out there. If you’re not making the most of your feet, then you are missing out.
Exploring by walking can be done by anyone, with no prior experience and with very little fitness. It’s easy to get started and it’s relatively safe.
Imagine the places you will discover that you would never see if in a car or other transport.
“What you can’t imagine, you can’t discover”
― Albert Einstein
