With this particular walk, we will be partaking in a Parkland Walk from Finsbury Park to Alexandra Park. It’s a full on nature walk where we’ll be exposed to lots of nature down the pathway. If we’re lucky, we may catch the setting sun should the weather be grand.

After this walk, if all goes well, we can do an aftermath and let democracy decide. My fellow explorers, if you enjoyed the event, I’m more than happy to accept any donations which of course are optional but will go a long way to help me unlock and deliver even more exciting and engaging events and resources: https://www.paypal.me/calvinjoy
