On Holiday Is The Art of Escape

Without ever running away

I’ve been living On Holiday for as long as I can remember. It’s the subtle art of setting the table with a few objects of desire, even if it’s just a table for one or two - I actually feel the fewer guests, the more extraordinary the decor, or even the location, could be. Finding time every day to do something inspired or inspiring. Sometimes the simplest of gestures has the greatest long term impact. Last summer I created a group text with friends called Swim Club, every day someone pops on to say where they’re swimming and if we can, we join them for a dip. To live at home just as freely as I feel while traveling along foreign coastlines. Shopping the local boutiques and farmer’s market and finding quiet moments in the sun dappled garden to nap with Sofia and Mabel make every afternoon perfect.
