Greet people you pass on a quiet street

“The first one feels unfamiliar. By the fifth it feels like how a neighbourhood should be.”

The Recipe

  1. Pick a quiet residential street or path and walk its length at an unhurried pace.
  2. Give a warm, natural nod or good morning to people you cross paths with: a simple, human acknowledgement of shared space.
  3. Keep walking at your own pace without waiting for an answer.
