quiet memories that i treasure

  • laying with Daph in the grass in the spring, in my green hoodie
  • standing on the terrace behind the art museum at night with D, watching the glittering lights on the river, smelling the fresh air
  • people-watching with C on the steps of the duomo in Florence
  • reading on the old leather couch in our canal apartment, sunlight streaming in and listening to piano music Alexandra Strelisky
  • eating cacio e pepe with a glass of local Riesling in the courtyard of the Church of St. James in Brno
  • swimming at Chryssi during my lunch break, eating a PB&J in the water
  • Christmas mornings as a kid with my family, eating opera fudge and cookies for breakfast and opening presents on the living room carpet
  • napping in the sun on the stone sculpture in Boboli Gardens with no one around
  • looking at the river with Ram through our big windows in our canal apartment
  • walking in the drizzling rain in Dublin at night with D
  • waking up to the sunrise over Mirabello Bay, with the screen door to our tiny apartment open
  • the solitude of St. Brigid's Well
  • driving through the Lasithi Plateau with S
  • drinking a freddo cappuccino on the balcony, completely filthy and sweaty from excavating, relaxing and cooling off and watching the water lap the shore
  • sitting on the beach in Cape May with my family, napping, reading, snacking
  • sleeping in the sun on our balcony
  • meals with my dad in Monastiraki
  • D scrambling fresh eggs and cutting brown bread for breakfast on the plastic-covered floral table cloth in our AirBnb in Dingle
  • doing yoga and meditating on the balcony at the Outer Banks, listening to the ocean
  • sitting on the floor, watching the storm roll in with Ram from our back sliding doors
  • reading a book, sitting in the cute chairs and yellow room, eating a croissant and drinking a La Colombe latte, barely sweetened, at Miel, listening to the French cafe music with my bag of macarons for later
