We spent 8 days bathing ourselves in the Canary Island morning sun, partaking in siesta by sleeping afternoons away under white cotton sheets, and enjoying evenings on our balcony while sipping Spanish wine listening to the waves wash against the rocks below. We reminisced about our past. We envisioned our future. He spoke lines to me from the latest novel he was reading and I lost myself in the ocean, daily. We dreamed of living a life by a tropical ocean, at least for a time.

Now, we’re back in gray cloudy Holland working side by side to welcome old friends into our new home and looking forward to reminiscing about the past with them while envisioning a bright future!














This is what I look like after spending multiple days at the beach and not wanting to style my hair. WILD!
