The good things in life

Lenny April 7, 2016 Musings Leave a Comment 1061 Views

Yesterday I was lying by the pool in Thailand, sipping fresh watermelon juice and alternating between luxuriating in the heat and escaping into the refreshing coolness of the water.

Today I had lunch at my mum’s favorite Italian restaurant and wandered around the (occasionally) sunny streets of Geneva running mundane errands.

Very different experiences but each a little slice of perfection.

It is now six months since I gave up my job to a carve a new path for my life.  I may not be living the dream but I am most definitely living mine.

My plans for the next few weeks will see me retracing footsteps that I previously trod with my mum.  I will be revisiting places that we loved:  Bristol, Brussels, Bruges and Ghent.

I didn’t really plan things this way, it’s just how they worked out.  It means things may get emotional but I’m really looking forward to a period of solo travel.  And making new memories to complement the old ones I made with my favorite travel companion.
