Gigi: May 2008 Archives

Let it be stated, for the record, and for those who don't already know this, I love walking. Shoe, weather, and distance permitting, I will always opt for my feet as my favorite mode of transportation. And I'll permit many shoes, some crazy weather, and a whole lot of distance before I even think of not walking somewhere walkable. And of course, my definition of walkable, is to some, questionable. And to further hammer home the point of my love for walking that knows no boundaries, in sixteen years of working and three cities of residence, I've never had a job I couldn't walk to and it's not a track record I ever plan to break. Suffice it to say, a city's treatment of pedestrians is of extreme importance to me.
