Sitting in the Old Bodleian Library at Oxford University. The rare book I'm here for is also readable online, but I prefer to ingest it in this high-ceilinged room overlooking an ornate quadrangle.
Most of my free time on this trip I spend walking, and I bring a thousand-page tome with me wherever I go. One moment I'm alone in a stonewalled alley, the next I'm engulfed in tourists, the next I share a pasture with a herd of lazy cows. I've made this space my own.
The Kingston Sudbury-model School will have spaces that fit your moods. Space to be alone or with others, space always available to you indoors and out. How important is this to you? What are the benefits, both immediate and long-term?
At this Monday's walk-and-talk, we'll talk about the importance of having spaces that fit your moods. It's part of this August's general theme of the importance of space.
I personally won't be at this week's walk-and-talk, or the next few. I'm here in England caring for my granny. If you'd like to discuss this topic with me when I'm back, please leave a comment below.
