light on europe

_MG_6574_MG_6586_MG_6508_MG_6579

a few leftover moments from my trip to belgium & the lowlands.

things I love in and about europe: ♥ quiet train rides ♥ the architecture ♥ big windows, lots of light ♥ politeness ♥ friends ♥ memories ♥ abandoned houses ♥ crisp air ♥ the subtle and magical transformation from winter to spring ♥ language ♥ candies & sweets ♥ creativity ♥ biking on biking lanes ♥ markets ♥ speaking with a soft volume ♥ bright and long summer nights ♥

…among many other lovely things…

I hope to one day travel out of the US. There's a whole beautiful world out there...thanks for showing us little bits of it.
Sometimes I feel stuck in my little corner the midwest....

Ja den där krispigheten i luften finns inte överallt, jag älskar den också. Och fina Sara, tänk om vi bara kunde ses, dricka lite te och prata. Titta på alla dina bilder. Stor kram!

I feel the same Sara!
and the way you name all theses beauties is like a trip taken from my kitchen table ;)

Ååh..allt det där du nämner tycker jag också så mycket om, och nu blev jag verkligen sugen att resa. att vara närvarande i resan..i världen..
Tycker så mycket om dina porträtt. de känns så väldigt levande de där människorna du möter på vägen, de du har omkring dig. så så mycket liv!
kramar...

i was thinking of my old friends i left behind in London... and my sis in Hungary too :) it will be a little while until i can satisfy the travelbug again, but probably in the summer i'll join my sister for a few lunches. i have two friends here only, the finns seem to be a bit hard to approach when you are new in town. but i'm sure i'll garner more friends here too as time goes by :)
hope your toe troubles will be gone soon. hugs to you x
