We went for a walk once during our session. It was fine, near the water, quite scenic. I am not sure what prompted us to go outside. I remember liking walking beside him. At some point we sat down on a bench and I didn't like that as much as he became engaged in conversation it seemed with just about every person who walked by. I realized then what an outgoing and gregarious person he is. (He has told me that he tries to tone down that side of himself during our sessions, since I am a quieter introvert.)

On my birthday once, my T took me out for lunch.

My T told me that one time there was a minor fire and his building had to be evacuated for several hours. He said he walked with his clients to a nearby outdoor sitting area and had his sessions there.
