    I can't believe how much minor tweaks to my routine have changed my mindsets! I now even have playlists dedicated for when I do my daily walking, and even though public transit takes longer, my time on transit systems is when I get to read books and text friends before I "lock in" on campus or at work

    This is a reflection for last week, but choosing to take the bus more often when I can instead of doing other solutions has been really nice, and has saved me a lot of money! Plus, I am making myself get out there and go on walks so much more than I had before, and it has honestly been really nice! Now, I feel like I cant go through my day without a nice walk

    I take the bus and/or carpool every day, and it is a pretty 20 minute walk on a coastal trail from the bus stop to my apartment, so I am excited to see how my daily commute supports the environment!
