venla

Summer's almost gone. After three weeks vacation I finally start to understand how much I needed it - it's been ages since I had time or energy to just surf around, read books, walk in the rain, get enthusiastic about something. Once again I managed to almost visit the lands of numbness and apathy. With my history I should know better. I should take more time to myself. Treat myself with a good book and cup of tea instead of carrying out yet another task.



I also remembered my photography. Photoshopped a set for a dear friend and will start some others soon. Found all the pics from this summer - where did all the rare free days go?

Walks in the forests

Summer cabins


puolukka (lingonberry, Vaccinium vitis-idaea*)

Travelling

Cooking

I think I'll have to start to save some money so I can visit France soon

So, how did your summer go?
