The title of this blog is "The world by foot", and the URL is "Walking all the world".
No, I'm not walking to Europe. And no, I'm not really backpacking Europe either, since I will have a permanent residence for most of the trip. So...what's all this pedestrian stuff about?
After living in Seattle for a year without a car, I've realized that you become acquainted with a place in a very different way when you have to rely on it for transportation, entertainment, and safety. Not having a car in Seattle was amazing, but it made things a bit interesting when visitors drove over and asked for directions, as I often walked where cars couldn't go... in any case, I will be using my own little feet to explore my three destinations this fall, with the help of airplanes, trains, and the occasional taxi. So, from a pedestrian's perspective, let's do Paris!
