    A good thing about walking is that there are so many more possible routes than with driving so the monotony can continually be remediated.

    And since it’s personable, unlike sitting in a car alone, each walk could automatically be novel.

    I would argue the monotony may take much longer than before to appear.

      Even walking the same route is enjoyable. You get to notice the small things - moonrise, birds, people walking the same or opposite way each day

      I’m 30 km from my workplace so I cycle, and have a choice of about three paths. When I travel at the same time, same way, I see the same people walking their dogs, jogging, cycling (passing me; me passing them)

      It’s the shallowest acquaintance, but still nice
