E X C I T E D // Project 365 // Day 243

I like people 

who get excited 

about the change of seasons, 

the sound of the ocean, 

watching a sunset, 

the smell of rain

and starry nights.

Spinalonga, is a now abandoned island that from 1903 to 1957 was used as leper colony. Before antibiotics were used to get rid of the disease, people who contracted leprosy were seen as unclean and to protect the healthy population they were sent to colonies quarantining them from friends and family.

Spinalonga // Project 365 // Day 232

Crete was such a relaxing holiday, our only excursion was over to the little island of Spinalonga. We had such a clear view of it from our room we thought it was only right we went for a little visit.

It made her feel small // Project 365 // Day 228

She loved the sea. 

She liked the sharp 
salty smell of the air, 
and the vastness of the horizons
bounded only by a vault 
of azure sky above. 

It made her feel small, 
but free as well.

- George. R. R. Martin - 

When it comes to sea I use a lot of quotes, its cause I do truly love it. There something freeing about being near the ocean. It's comforting, calming and crazy.

Is it weird that I had a summer goal of a palm tree shot.  Up until greece none of my holidays had any to get a pic. And I didn't think I'd get one in Elounda.

But here it is a Palm tree. Its summer vibes.

The Ocean // Project 365 // Day 225

for her 

the ocean 

was more 

than a dream,

it was a place

she needed to visit 

to find herself. 

and when she returned 

to the city, 

you could see the sun 

in her eyes, the wind

in her hair, and taste

the infinite salt

on her lips.

I like this place // Project 365 // Day 222

I like this place

E X H A L E // Project 365 // Day 221

I have done quite a few city breaks this year, that were go, go ,go and whilst I truly love the fast pacedness of them and exploring a new city, I forgot just how much I needed nothingness. We had our own private pool and sunbathing area attached to our room, we also had a shaded balcony area.

So I just spent the hour between breakfast and dinner floating between tanning, jumping in the pool or calling off inside or outside.

It was just blissful.

never go to long without watching a sunset...

P A R A D I S E // Project 365 // Day 219

It was dark when we reached Elounda, so as we sat on our balcony on the first night there was a dark mass which we assumed was sea as we knew we were near a beach.

But waking up to the this view was more than we had expected.

An honest paradise.

It's been a whole year since we last spoke // Project 365 // Day 218

"Its been a long year
Since we last spoke.
How's your halo?
Just between you and I"

This time last year it felt like my world was falling apart... one week changed so much and for months afterwards I struggled with the aftermath. 

It's a weird think to sense distance between a person you one felt so close to, I never knew by choosing not to say hey to you that morning, to see if you would speak unprompted, that I was really choosing not to speak to you again.

A year can change a lot there had been a time where I couldn't imagine not being your friend, now I couldn't imagine ever being your friend again. Too much has happened. 

The latter months of 2018 felt somber, everyday felt hard. Today I'm flying off to Greece. I know what year I'd rather be living in. Every season of our life has a purpose, but I'm glad to be in a better place. Mentally and literally. 

xoxo

just be // Project 365 // Day 217

Let July be July 
Let August be August
and let yourself 
just be 
even in 
the uncertainty 
You don't have to fix
everything. 
You don't have solve 
everything.
And you can still 
find peace 
and grow 
in the wild 
of changing things

Fire in her Soul // Project 365 // Day 216

there's fire in her ass

there's fire in her soul

she's burning it down.
