In suburban California, getting around often means getting in a car. But for Keerthi in San Ramon and Padma in Fremont, walking, running, and riding the bus opened up a different view of their hometowns. Along trails, sidewalks, and bus routes, they discovered hidden neighborhoods, unexpected connections, and the small moments that make a community feel alive. This episode explores what happens when we stop rushing to our destination and start paying attention to the journey.
Today’s segments were produced by Keerthi Eraniyan and Padma Balaji. Lead Producer Becky Wandel produced, edited and mixed this episode. Theme song composed and performed by Emilson Orellana Juarez and Jerick Romero Ciprian.
