It’s in our nature to wander.
In our noisy, get-there-quick, do-it-now world, it’s easy to forget: wandering is natural. It’s natural to be curious, to follow our instincts. To connect with the wisdom that’s all around - and within us.
That’s why for 48 hours, from Berlin to Melbourne, Nairobi to New York and everywhere between, this international community of the kind and curious are going for a BIG collective online and in-person wander to ask questions, make discoveries and find new ways to take care of ourselves and our world.
It's Street Wisdom and partners' inclusive and free annual gathering where we come together to walk this world with curiosity and generosity. Together.
It's 50+ in-person facilitated walking workshops all around the world (we call them Walkshops) - join one near you or even host your own
It's 10 online facilitated walking workshops (and extra surprises along the way) - you can drop in from wherever you are using Zoom on your phone or from indoors using a laptop
It's 23 special guests from the worlds of the arts, creativity, walking, complexity, serendipity, nature, climate, comedy and more.
