It’s Wednesday, May 13, 2026. I’m coming to you from a sun-drenched plaza in Barcelona after a morning of journaling, coffee, and a serendipitous run-in with a friend. Today, we’re talking about “Social Surface Area.” Why does living in a walking city feel so different from living in a driving city? We explore the biological spark of the “unplanned encounter” and how to manufacture that feeling even if you’re stuck in suburban traffic.
