During walking home,


Thanks!
I don't think it would make sense. You can't take a taxi home while you're on the train ride home (you would be in two places at once! ). The sentence after the comma shows what you're doing during the train ride home.

So for example:

During the train ride home, I read the newspaper.

Which means you were reading the newspaper on the train ride home.

I hope that makes sense. I'm not very good at teaching, haha ^^;
