Overall I think it's a great idea
I have a bird like Birdman said 2 of his are - uncomfortable if taken too far away from their comfort zone. I don't think Kiwi is like that at all? In that case it should be fun for both of you.
In certain situations I'd be weary. For example, for those in an apartment community, or neighborhood where you don't trust others enough it might not be a good idea to show your bird. Also, even if you do feel safe where you are with the people, walking in a neighborhood with lots of houses means dogs protecting their property can run out of the garage or front yard and attack you passing by. For that reason I don't like walking (even without a pet) in a housing track. I've almost been attacked by dogs before as I walked past their property, and knew people who actually have been.
If you live in a more open area without close neighbors like it sounds like you do, it could be a really nice time.
