Your Daily Commute

The word ‘commute’ can conjure a number of different images, and most are negative. But for neighbor Samir Chopra, his six years of walking to work from Ditmas Park to Brooklyn College sound incredibly nice:

While walking to work is pleasant enough, it is when I walk back home in the evenings that the pleasure of the walking commute really manifests itself. For no matter how stressful the workday, a thirty-minute walk, away from the office, away from workday demands, through tree-lined streets and past magnificent testimonials to a time when beautiful homes were still being built, is often enough to bring me back to a far more quiescent mental state.

Decompressing on the trip home from work is key no matter how you’re travelling. So, how are you travelling, and do you enjoy this much?
