Evening winter walk

If you have been on my blog for more than 5 minutes, you will have figured out that I am not a big fan of winter. I will let you in on a little secret... I almost like the holiday period where Christmas lights give a certain coziness to the dark evenings. After about mid January, the darkness definitely loses it's charm but, while the holiday lights are still appropriate, I almost enjoy it ;) Don't tell anyone ;)

So, while the holiday lights are still up and it still looks festive, I like to take evening walks. Soon, I will start to complain about winter again but, for the moment, I won't complain as much as usual ;)

Happy weekend xox

A lovely habit

While I enjoy walking with Andreas, I also love to put on some good music and go for a walk by myself. My favourite time of the day to go is after dinner, just as the sun is starting to set. The evening light is magical and the purple/pink/blue hues of the setting sun are so beautiful. I love the smell of apple blossoms and lilacs along my route. It is calm and quiet, with light spilling from the windows of the homes that I pass. I get to take a deep breath and enjoy the moment. This definitely a lovely habit.

Happy Sunday evening to you all! Wishing you all a good week ahead xox

A moment of quiet

Last night, on my way to soccer, I got to appreciate a moment of quiet. I was able to enjoy the beautiful sunset. I enjoyed my iced coffee. I appreciated the warm evening air. I was able to take a deep breath. Sometimes, despite the craziness in my day to day, I have moments like this.... and I appreciate every second of them.

Ahhhhh......
