Sans public transport for one year

2008-09-11

Yay, I made it – one year without using Brno public transport. I walked, walked, walked and walked. Sometimes I used my bike when it was too far and when the weather was suitable. I only used car when it was because of someone else (such as driving my grandaunt to her home or similar occasions).

I had used public transport at Brno tournament one year ago, and now I had to do the same because the tournament site is too far to walk to and I couldn’t go by bike as I was going with my Polisz friends. The tournament was a minor disaster for me, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. Especially the moments not spent playing go.

While I’m not planning to break any more records as far as public transport is concerned, I still plan on trying to actively avoid using it. Walking is good.

And yes, j’aime français, why are you asking?

Well, you see… Brno is relatively small so it’s not that difficult (my work is something over 2km, train station about 3km). That said, when I was in Warsaw I of course walked from the train station to v’s place :-) (I hope you are who I think you are, cause otherwise this will be rather impossible to understand)

Rather awesome thing :). Though in place where I live I also don’t use public transport and walk/bike all the time with one exception which is going to work (12km is really not a distance I would like to walk :D). And when I was in Brno because of teeth or Invex I always used to walk to the site from train/bus .. it is refreshing, gives time to think and is easy on ones budget (being a student can be really bad at times).

szeery: good points…

There’s only one you forgot – it makes you remember the way. When I drive somewhere 5 times I can still forget where to take the turn and often I’m not exactly sure where I am etc. When I walk somewhere just two times (there and back), I’ll remember it forever and won’t get lost the next time.
