you lust for the dream

until you can touch it,

then all of a sudden,

it doesn't feel how you thought it should.

i was feeling a bit romantic that day.

sometime last october.

verona.

i was in Verona last year, only for a little bit, and apart from the standard golden Juliette boob grab, i bumped into this street performer- quite literally...

at the time i was mildly freaked out, on account of the fact that i'd thought he was a statue.

after a broken Italian apology, i took this photo to remember our time together.

for funsies.

this has to be one of the best covers i've ever heard.
ever.

this was taken last year on a trip to yiayia's childhood home in Limnos, Greece.

there's something about the clean white washed walls and crispy mountain air that makes this place seem so far away from anywhere i'd ever been before. the fact that this was where yiayia and papou had lived more than forty years ago made it even more amazing to me. to be in yiayia's home was surreal. to try and comprehend how nine people had lived in this tiny little house on a hill was something i'm truely glad i got the chance to see.

we should be living like we did that summer.

mum says i look like a "bunny rabbit"...

pretty 

self

explanatory.

afternoon.

for as long as i can remember, i've seen this elusive bird beautifying the space of
yiayia's 
lounge 
wall
and it has been the undeniable object of my affection since i was about five.

given to her by her brother as a parting gift, flown

16 000km's and nested on the white surface that has been its home, i doubt there's anything this sentimentally significant in my house.
