Find a bench

Tell us where you are and we'll pick you one good place to sit and read. A bench, a lookout, a quiet corner. One at a time, like a magazine.

Every printed issue we mail includes a little map like the one below, pointing somewhere near the subscriber worth reading at. This page is the same machinery with the door left open. It runs on OpenStreetMap, which is to say: on years of strangers lovingly cataloguing benches.

or use my location

The bench does not know you are coming. That is part of the charm.
