Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Feb 4, 2023
"Keeling’s voice, which reminds me a bit of Josie Long, is welcoming and her eye is acute. A short walk along Blackstock Road in north London to the sound of a nearby Arsenal game is an auditory rollercoaster; a wander round a hidden park reveals a bench plaque to business show-off Digby Jones (Keeling doesn’t seem to know who he is, which I liked). It’s wonderful stuff."

"...this is a unique new series that pushes the boundaries of audio storytelling in a simple-yet-effective way. Keeling’s remarks of her surroundings are elegant and poetic, and they sit beautifully overtop of soothing atmospheric sound. I would describe the series as being somewhat akin to guided mindfulness meditations, therefore it’s not one to listen to while at the gym or running errands – instead, make yourself a cup of tea, put your headphones on, sit down and close your eyes before pressing play."
