Is walking in Tijuana safe? I’m looking to get braces in Mexico but I don’t have a car as I’m a college student. My cheapest option is to take the Blue Line Trolley to San Ysidro and cross on foot but even then, it’ll take an hour to walk to any Orthodontic offices. The problem is: I’m a girl and I would be traveling alone. I was thinking of taking an electric scooter with…

LPT: If you want walking directions on Google Maps that actually avoid un-walkable highways, press “Cycling” instead of “Walking” for direction type. For me, whenever I tried finding walking directions to a given place, Google Maps kept sending me to walk along a highway that I knew wasn’t safe to walk by. However, when I selected “Cycling” instead of “Walking” for direction type, it magically found routes that didn’t utilize a highway at all. I’m sure it isn’t 100% perfect at avoiding un-wal…

Walking shoes you prefer? It’s time for me to replace my old travel shoes and I wonder what you folks prefer for walking long distances, both for sidewalks and dirt trails? I average 15k steps or so some days and I’m looking for something comfortable and durable. What do you guys and gals like? submitted by /u/Steadimate

LPT Request: How to deal with people walking in the opposite direction as you, walking towards you when you have the right of way? I just don’t understand how or why some people feel the need to walk exactly where I’m walking from the opposite direction? I’m on the right side of the sidewalk (that is right of way where I live) and they’ll purposely walk to their left to exactly where I’m walking especially when there’s so much space on the sidewalk? Why? This happens more a…

Walking from Spain to Israel I’m looking into walking from Spain to Israel on the Jerusalem Way. I’d fly into Spain to start. Just wondering what type of visa & immigration things I’d need to do so I don’t get arrested somewhere. I’m a US citizen. The route goes from Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Greece,…

Walking by Dogs for TSA I’ve been on 70+ flights in the US in my life. The last 3 flights (all in the last month) I’ve had the same experience with TSA which I’ve never had before. I was made to stand in line next to someone and walk ~30 feet past a security dog 2 at a time. I also didn’t have to take out my laptop or take off my shoes. I cannot remember experiencing a…

LPT: if you want to avoid the awkward side shuffle when trying to avoid walking into somebody when rounding a corner / walking straight at you, look straight ahead and don’t make eye contact. You will drastically reduce/eliminate these occurrences. I don’t know why this works but this was a trick that a manager taught me when I was working as a server in a restaurant. I didn’t believe him at first but it truly works, It’s actually quite astounding. In the last 15 years of me employing this trick, I can count on one hands the amount of awkward side shuffles I’ve had to do when trying to avo…
