Where Curiosity Leads | Belonging, Untold Stories & Living London | Saira Niazi

What happens when you follow your curiosity instead of the expected path?

In this episode of Different by Nature, Hannah speaks to Author of 'On Belonging - Reflections of a Renegade Guide' and Living London Founder Saira Niazi, whose love of wandering started with bunking off school to explore markets, cemeteries and random stops on the London Underground.

That curiosity eventually became Living London — a project uncovering hidden places, overlooked communities and the stories that often sit just beneath the surface of the city.

Saira talks about walking hundreds of miles across the World and the UK, discovering the power of being different, helping people feel that outdoor spaces belong to them, and why nature and place can connect us back to culture, memory and identity.

They also explore untold histories, inclusive walking, neurodivergence, taking unconventional career paths and why sometimes the best thing you can do is simply follow your feet.

Plus, Saira shares three of her favourite hidden places in London.

Different by Nature — real life, outside.
