      @bruh You are quite right. Both variety of walking paths, and the potential of good aesthetic experiences increases the deisre to walk. So a better walking experience which is a good thing, increases the amount of walking which is a fantastic thing. Improving life is to a large degree about enganging in positive feedback loops and ending negative feedback loops.

      In what way are you stuck with urban ugliness?
      Why are you unable/unwilling to move? It sounds like a classic form of learned helplessness to me.

          @Jonnie Lol this is really where it's at. Society is so Wall * E-esque, that we have to go back to the basics. That being said, one should take walking seriously. Walking is one of the biggest parts of our life. How we walk, how much we walk, with whom we walk, and where we walk is of cruicial importane to life outcomes.

            @Norwegian-Mugabe Well I plan on moving eventually. I'm a 19 y/o living with my parents so I just need to save up some money first.

              What are the best hiking trails in Europe? listening to E. Michael Jones walking in Bavaria makes me want to go for hikes there. I am lucky to live in Norway as the nautre is beautiful. What other landscapes should I consider to go hiking in?

                Do you prefer hilly or flat terrain?

                Slovenia is great. Small and very beautiful country. Great landscape around Bled, Soča valley, Triglav national park etc. Croatia too.

                The Netherlands also have some beautiful national parks if you like it more flat. Bavaria and Austria are great, too.

                Although I only live about 4 hours from the border, I've never been to Switzerland. But it should be very nice for hiking there too.

                  @Luke Thanks for the info. Slovenia seems like a hidden gem. Those places looks like they are from a fairytale.

                    It's really nice. I was there for two weeks in 2019. Also very nice people. And if you ever go into a city there, they are very clean, unlike Germany where everything is full of trash.

                      @Luke Immigration is the main reason for trash in Germany. You can see a very clear split in European cities based on immigration levels.

                        Walking is great, love areas that are walkable :). Having someone else drive you is an aristocrat trait and I hate the car obsession in America. Not having a car is an example of the horseshoe theory for the poor and the very rich.

                            The thing with walks is that when you get off your own personal beaten tracks, even in your city or town, that not so familiar imagery adds up and then... You're back home and everything looks fresh and new.

                                @Aryan_Racist Nothing. I contemplate it however if it's a serotonin-fuelled doomer nightwalk. Some light talk radio station is fine. But I like to spend the nights indoors or in company.

                                  @Aryan_Racist I just listen to the sounds in nature. I think you will not recieve all the same stress-release benefits if you listen to classical music or podcast while walking. It is a delight to listen to: the wind, the birds, and to the energy of water.

                                    Have any evolutionary biologists written about how birdsong might sound beautiful because it signals resources? This might in part be the reason we are so fond of trees too. Beautiful trees need sufficient water and light to grow. The energy that is stored in trees has been vital for humans since before we became homo sapiens.
                                    It struck me today that your typical bird is much more musically gifted than the median man. The rhythm and tempo of the birds are truly breathtaking. It is also odd that birds with so limited mental capacity are in need of such complex music for mating. When I listen to birds, I feel that they sing to us. I assume we are the only ones able to appreciate the stunning beauty of birdsong.

                                      "During the 1870s and 1880s, America's most popular spectator sport wasn't baseball, or football—it was competitive walking. Inside sold-out arenas, competitors walked around dirt tracks almost nonstop for six straight days, risking their health and sanity to see who could walk the farthest—500 miles was standard"

                                        I have been walking more this year and I feel better. Has anyone else been walking more? if so, what benefits are you experiencing?

                                          Yea walking is extremely underappreciated.

                                          Walking will override terrible metabolism and get things moving in the right direction. One of the fastest drug free ways to lose weight without feeling terrible in the end. Just need to make time.

                                          Dropped ~30lbs in 3months averaging 2hrs/5mi a day. Ate around maintenance calories +/-200. Most importantly, I didn't feel like shit or have to deal with rebound that comes with crashing calories to get the same fat loss rate.

                                          A 'W' all around.

                                            @Jaffe You are right that losing weight without cutting calories is a much better long-term approach. Walking also makes you feel good. The increase in testosterone and lowering of cortisol improves life as much as anything else. The key is to create an upward spiral and keep going 🙂
