In this podcast, managing editor Natalie Argerious and I talk summer vacation and the best ways to carry urbanism with you in your travels. We talk summer reading and favorite short trips from Seattle. Natalie also interrogates my younger child Gillian to find out how many of my vacation stories are actually true.But the name of the game in urbanist style travel is awareness. Is the way we're traveling actually the best way to get around? Can shifting just a little make the places we visit a bit more walkable? And have we kept in mind the many generations of people that came before our current visit? For that last one, here is a great resource called Native-Land.cato find the indigenous tribe whose land you're standing on. And check out some links below to the fun stuff we talk about, including Natalie's review of the Empire Builder, a visit to every Vancouver Sky Train station, and reviews of all the breweries in southwest British Columbia. Some ideas if that travel bug starts nibbling.This is also the finale for the first season of The Urbanist Podcast. We deeply appreciate you listening as we've worked out a few of the kinks. There are some hilarious stories about the trial and (many) errors we've gone through these last few months. Those will be shared sometime, and we look forward to joining you again for a couple miniseries over the summer and coming back again full steam in the fall.Of course, we want to know your thoughts, opinions, and summer vacation stories.
