πŸ‘€ Navigating mazes

To the directionally challenged, like me, cities may as well be like those high-hedged mazes. Maps might as well be the scribblings of a creative child. But one thing I know is I love traversing them, whether or not I have a good sense of where exactly I am.

Might sound horrible to you, but for me, the commute was one of my favourite parts of my day when I had to go into the office. Whilst in transit, there was nowhere to be but in the present. No amount of fretting or speeding or frantic phone calls could make things go any faster. I just had to sit patiently as traffic inched slowly across the city, weaving through metro construction, dug-up roads, and other diversions. Mostly, I just had to wait. Listen to music. Look out the window. Chill. It was respite from having to do stuff all the time.

If you miss the labyrinth of peak hour traffic, you might enjoy this. And if you don't (let's be honest, you most likely don't), it will test your patience even more than your painful commute. I love how you can only move one small step at a time, exactly like the traffic in my city. The only difference is that even though I'm terrible at actually navigating real roads, I'm pretty good at getting out of these mazes.

Just One Thing is the perfect recommendation for anyone into mazes. And traffic. Point us their way?
