A tiny win from Warsaw that made my week after 40 tries

The detail that surprised me was how much a tiny balcony changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

There is probably a middle ground here. The a neighborhood park detail changes the whole answer

This is adorable and oddly motivating. The gentle part is easy to underestimate

What would you change if you started over? Honestly, the simplest version wins for me

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability

Honestly, great taste. This is more useful on a tired quiet Sunday then on a perfect day

That last line is excellent. The quiet Sunday version is even more interesting

Do you think this would work in a smaller place then Dublin? I noticed the same thing in Kuala Lumpur
