30-Day “Know your City” Challenge
Welcome to the “Know your city” Challenge. Know thy City to Know thyself. I have written down this challenge for the current locations. The “City” in the challenge name is not confined to metro cities, it can be any place you are currently staying.
It means If you truly want to know a speck of your being, you need to know and understand the place you live in deeply. We all think we can escape the influence of our surroundings but no one can deny that even if they want to closely relate to the place they belong, they will get some influence from the current city they stay in.
It might not be true for everyone but yes, indeed, most of us will still have so many things to uncover in the city we live in and hence through this challenge, we will try to know our city better than before.
There is a common saying that “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” So know the city through their customs and culture. Their local food and historical places. I have listed out all that will help you on this journey in the below checklist.
How to take the challenge:
When you take this challenge, you need to consider your current location.
- Take up each topic as listed out and explore
- Take pictures and create new insights
- Create a journal and record the following things:
- What new information have you got to know?
- What amazed you?
- How did you feel?
- Add a picture that you loved the most on that day and give it a caption
- Record the date and place
- Be creative and come up with new things – make new rules
Below is the list that will guide you throughout the challenge:
At the end of 30 days, you will surely be amazed at the insights you gain about your city. Every city has its charm. We need the curious mind and empathetic eyes to look at the city and uncover the beauty.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
