I saw that same quote, and thought about my walk a few years back, across the breadth of the UK (Wales to London). I do feel like I have a better intuitive grasp of the size of it now -- much better than you get from driving or taking the train.

Serious walking definitely changes one's perspective. I don't feel comfortable in a place until I've learned to get around on foot.
