One of the most momentous improvements in quality of life: switching to a job within walking or cycling distance of your home. The privilege and freedom of that. The inexpensive pleasantness of that. All those extra hours freed up for your own personal use every day, to do something with or nothing with, whatever you fancy.

@CiaraNi I have a remote job, and decided to rent a desk at a nearby coworking place. I like to get out of the house, and the vibe of other people working helps me focus.

What I didn't realize is that the 15-minute bike ride to get there is the best part. Having that time to be outside, get a very little exercise, and clear my head is the best part of the work day.

@bwbeach That resonates. I value the little journey too. It's a kind of sorbet for the mind between work and personal life.
