I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I'm not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

Climbing things! Trees, walls, playground equipment. Just the idea of being able to get up there from here gets me excited. Same thing with tunnels and other out of the way places. I just love to explore places where I'm not supposed to be ever since I was little and I never really lost that.
Of course nowadays I can't be seen climbing on someone's roof or trying to scale a security fence without being seen as a trespasser. 😒

I went to a climbing gym once with family, and it's a crazy workout, too. I'd love to do it regularly if it weren't so expensive.

Have you tried bouldering? Their gyms are usually cheaper and you need fewer gears; just shoes and a crashpad if you want to do it outside
