旅行

近くはよし 遠くはあし

chikaku wa yoshi toku wa ashi / ちかくはよし とおくはあしNear is good, far is bad

Also written as: 近きはよし 遠きはあし

Meaning

Short trips are good, while long journeys are better put off. The phrase divides by distance, so for now outings you can manage in a day suit you best.

What to do today

Instead of a long trip, walk a street near you that you have not taken before.

A word from the capybara

A stroll around the neighbourhood counts as a proper journey too.
