This week, we interviewed Alex Wolfe, a graphic designer who writes Pedestrian, a newsletter about walking and moving through our everyday surroundings.
You may be interested in this movie: God Grew Tired of Us (2006) about a group of about 25,000 boys who escaped the violent civil war in Sudan by walking 1,000 miles to Ethiopia and then Kenya, where they were housed in refugee camps.
My dog Maggie (pictured here) go for a walk in the country where we live almost every day. It keeps you fit and aware, plus you get to meet and talk to your neighbors.
I'm also curious how newsletters get selected for a feature. I write a newsletter around Insight and Adventure called The Dive which features experiments in Data Viz and a round-up of exciting long-reads, if you're interested

So inspiring. Loved how Alex just kept on walking.
Wandering on foot in new cities is my favorite part of traveling.

Love this idea: just writing about walking around NYC -- which is so fascinating -- the people, the buildings, everything!
