Over the last year the time we can spend outside became a very precious commodity. I am an outdoor person, yet for the sake of keeping myself and people around me safe I minimised the time I spend walking to once a week. It made me feel grateful for the little freedom we still have, and it made me appreciate being outside even more than ever before. It feels so good just to be able to put one foot in front of another and breathe in the cold fresh air. Watch the snowflakes flutter in the lamplight, melt on the pavements and make everything around glisten through the darkness of the night.
