Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much.

You’re reading Signal v. Noise, a publication about the web by Basecamp since 1999. Happy !

Cultivate curiosity because walking with your head down or too involved in conversation misses the point. Don’t even think about reaching for the phone.
