If you wanna check if I am walking, there is real life physical evidence!
Also sorry if the things I noticed seem silly, they kind of are! I was fully not expecting to be interviewed and had not prepared answers! Expected to walk and think and maybe have a couple of talks with strangers.
Being a person who loves to walk urban settings I think it's commendable that she tried this exercise in awareness and engagement. It would be interesting to witness the changes that occur in a locale from dawn to dusk. I would have to stop for coffee though ... or a beer.
I have stopped for lunch and tea and will probably stop for a beer too! Part of how I picked the block!
Walking is free so I don't have a gofundme but I do have a super low-key block where I'll probably write something about this sometime. Iwalkedhere.blog
That was cool. I wonder if she's done yet, and I hope her feet aren't killing her. (I'm thinking if they are, she's probably in a pretty good mood about it.)
You'll become a homeowner someday, build a house and then maybe, just maybe you'll notice those amazing outdoor sconces in the background of the video...
Or an open-ended, "What do you do at the Pacific Science Center?"
When I live in the country, I walk around the countryside. When I live in the forest, like now, I walk in the forest. When I lived in Seattle and the SFBA, I walked around the city. I never walked around such a small area repeatedly, but that's a little easier when you're a woman versus a guy (and you have signs up!) - people are less likely to peg you as a stalker. Now I'm tempted, but maybe a dozen laps before moving on to the next block.
@22 But even that opened-ended question could be misconstrued. ("Would you ask a MAN that??? What do you THINK I do? Why would you assume I might do anything other than what I actually, obviously do????")
@22 +1, great way of asking " What do you do at x?"
So much simpler than "So, are you an y at x or a z?"
@26 - no, it's not biased just asking. A hospital has many different types of medical specialties, a law firm many levels and areas of lawyers -- so asking open ended isn't inherently biased.
Stranger, quit click baiting inside your own damn articles. Some of us can't listen to the audio of a video (work, trapped under a sleeping baby, on a bus, whatever), so please include a transcript or at the very least, answer the question posed by the headline in the text. Don't be a story-tease.

Ha! Sorry, I believe you! I still think Dan should have been accompanying instead of stopping you, but it was a cool interview.

Make Walking Around the Block 100 Times Great Again!!!
(just kidding, sounds pretty neat actually! Will try to remember to check out your blog too...)
