RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Outside. Every single day, I'll be walking. Sometimes to go to some specific place, often just to go out and have a nice long walk.

Based asf, i love to walk too. One of the things i love the most is going in a city i've never been before or i barely know and just lose myself between its streets and discover new cool places and nice views.

100%. Note that one can also do that in a city they know: there is a lot of streets and spots to visit ;)

Absolutely, finding new spots in a city you've lived for years is very satisfactory :)

What kind of places do you like to walk in?

[–] Libb@piefed.social 1 points 13 hours ago

Anywhere I can go that's at walking distance (do errands, go to appointments, expo, friends,...) and, like I said, to nowhere in particular just for the enjoyment of going out and walk, wandering in the city (or wherever I happen to be when I'm not home).

It's also a great way to get surprised and to discover places and meet people you probably would not otherwise ;)

The funny thing is that a few years ago I was chronically (and severely) ill, like in a real real bad shape and I was also severely obese. No exaggerating, I could barely walk a few steps outside of my home without needing the entire day to rest. I decided I had enough of that shit and started to walk daily. I started slow (not much choice here) walking a few steps, but I did it everyday, without worrying about the shame of being frowned upon by people, then I started doing it twice a day, then even more. And I gently started walking for longer sessions too. Nowadays, if I'm still chronically ill (and that won't get away) I lost a shit ton of weight and I feel so much better despite that illness. And I will feel bad, if I don't go out at least for a little walk ;)
