A journal of streets, pauses and small observations.
Tooksoi uses route sketches and writing prompts to explore the relationship between a walk and the notes it leaves behind.
The focus
The journal connects urban observation with careful language about a place, a taste or an encounter.
It does not need a ranking or a definitive verdict to make a route worth recording.
The visual material
The map is an original schematic drawing. Its letters organise a route-making exercise rather than identify businesses or addresses.
There are no restaurant listings, customer reviews or reported venue visits on these pages.
The source of a sentence
A visible feature, a provider’s statement and a personal impression have different roles. Keep them distinguishable in the note.
Use an appropriate source when the writing needs to establish a factual point.
Using the guide
Choose a manageable route and a small question. Keep the actual practical arrangements separate from the schematic exercise.
Afterwards, save the context and decide which details belong in a shared account.
