Take a train an hour out and come back the same day
“Far enough to be somewhere else. Near enough that you have no excuse.”
The Recipe
- Buy a ticket to wherever is roughly an hour away, and read nothing about it first.
- Take the earliest train you will actually get up for.
- Walk out of the station in the direction with the fewest signs.
- Eat where the queue is people who live there rather than people with luggage.
- Find the highest point and go to it.
- Buy one thing you cannot get at home.
- Take the last train that gets you back tonight.
