In London I was used to a 40 minute walk to work, which I didn’t mind at all – especially since public transport would take about 30 minutes anyway.
I’m in much the same situation here – it’s about half an hour to walk and 25 minutes by bus. However the problem here is that after walking for more than about 10 minutes you get very sweaty, and it’s not a nice way to arrive at the office every day.
It’s a shame because I find walking to work a great way to get some gentle exercise. Fortunately since we live in a Condo, we have a pool right on our doorstep!
