AN OCTOBER DAY IN STOCKHOLM

















an October day wandering around Stockholm.





















the day began with breakfast at Snickarbacken 7
& a walk around Östermalm. 












then we headed to Gamla Stan,
which always seems to take you by surprise,
reveal another layer of itself...




























we all had an autumn flu,
but the quieter side streets & cafés were a pretty good remedy.






















until next time....

A QUIET HUM













































My soul month November arrived
with its diffused skies,
darkening nights
& invitation to retreat a little,
dream some more, 
quieten down.
















The colder & shorter days
give a special quality to light.
That’s when the earth’s muted greys glimmer.
A whole lot of softness with edge,
I think that’s what I’m forever trying to capture.
Not too much of one without the other.




















A warm buzz inside
from spending time with a dear friend yesterday,
a walk with my husband today along the coast,
the breeze adding an extra spring in the step.
Current state of mind:
subdued on the outside,
a riot of colour inside.


















After dinner,
a glass of red & this interview with Ellen Von Unwerth
(my goodness how kind and down-to-earth she seems…).















Wishing you a lovely rest of the weekend.
Just that, rest.
