Answer:
It's difficult to put our finger on it at times, but we all know that where we live and where we spend our time has an impact on who we are. We collectively construct our local area's identity as we shape it via physical changes and social activities; in turn, as stage sets for life, hubs for community and activity, these locations put together our own individual and communal identities. Engaging with a place's tales, learning more about it, strengthens our affinity to it. Then we go on to take part in creating fresh local stories ourselves.
