And wow; being able to walk places is amazing 😍! It’s so freeing to not need a car for everything. I the US I live close enough to work to walk, but the terrible design of the stroads makes it very unpleasant. I want to stay here, I don’t want to go back to the car dependent suburbs 🙁.
Unfortunately the trip was planned by my parents and we’ve spent a lot of time in a car traveling to places. I don’t mind pretty scenery, but multiple 6 hours days of car travel is boring. And really I wanted to see the urban design, not the country side.
As someone who lived their whole life in Europe, every time I watch Not just bikes I realize how privileged we are. It’s not as if things are perfect here, but you don’t have to use a car to go anywhere.
