Great stuff.
The best way to walk in a city is from an idea by Joel Henry: from your front door or wherever, turn left, then right, then left and so on until you get to a major road, river or other impassable thing.
It takes away the need to make decisions about which way to go, leaving your eyes free to observe your surroundings better, you'll go down streets you almost certainly wouldn't have done, and when you want to go back to your starting point you simply reverse the process (start right, then left etc) so you won't get lost.
I tried in Paris last year and it was a revelation.

I always like to get myself a bit lost when visiting a new city.
As long as you have a map or satnav with you (for finding your way back) and don't go miles from where you're staying (and avoid obviously dodgy looking places), you'll be fine.
I get to do it in Reykjavik in a few weeks.
