I love this app

I regularly go for waljs, and this app. accompanies me every time. It has transformed the experience of walking and mindfulness. I have found an earpiece that rests on the ear rather than insside the ear, and it’s just simply amazing walking in nature, listening to the wonderful narration. I highly recommend this app along with wireless open ear headphones as you can hear the voice whilst taking in the sounds around you

Love this app.

I feel so refreshed after using this app. It brings a whole new perspective to familiar surroundings, sounds and self. Absolutely worth the small cost. It’s brought a new joy to walking.
