The Glorious Boredom of My Walk in Japan

Book •
Craig Mod narrates his lengthy walk along historic Japanese routes, focusing on how prolonged walking cultivates boredom that opens space for creativity and observation.

He blends travel reportage with philosophical reflection on movement, attention, and place.

The essay explores how shedding digital distractions and slowing down enables richer encounters with landscapes and people.

Mod connects the physical rhythm of walking to mental processes of making and noticing.

The piece serves as both travelogue and meditation on the relationship between movement and creative practice.
