Life has been peaceful since
coming home, even amongst all the busyness.
My mom and I did this amazing cruise trip a
couple of weeks ago. You can imagine- I've been taking as many pictures as
possible, but I don't know if I'll be able to post pictures from my 5mark II
soon, so I've decided to put these photos here. Some of them you can remember
from my instagram stream.
When we arrived in Venice it was a night time
so we started our adventure the next day, waking up to the Italian cleaner
singing out loud "Oh Sole Mio" at 7am right outside of our room.
We immediately got into this mood and as soon as I went out on the street
I wanted to start singing myself- this is how beautiful everything was. We got lost for over an hour, walking on the
tiny streets trying to find the best pasta place in the town. We tiredly argued over directions. when we did eventually
find our way to it, things became a lot brighter again.
That evening we went on a cruise trip, during
which we've visited Croatia and Greece. Dubrovnik is a gorgeous city and I wish
I could come back again soon to explore a little more. My camera clicked
endlessly at everything I saw and I couldn't stop thinking about how lucky I
am.
The best part of the trip was the opportunity
to be able to explore a tiny part of this world with my incredible mom, who
isn't just a wonderful travel buddy, but also a great listener. She was amazed
by all the beauty the same way as I was and I felt happy sharing my emotions
and thoughts with her.
I love how you can just hop on a
train in europe and a few hours later you are in a completely different city.
When our ship came back to Venice after a week of traveling we took a train
straight to Rome. We had two days to see everything we could.
Beautiful Rome. The streets
were packed with people around the main sights. We walked all the way from the
Trevi fountain to the Coliseum, enjoying the gorgeous views, meanwhile
trying not to get hit by a scooter (drivers are a little insane). After the
long walk the buses were no longer going so we got gelato and decided to
walk back to our hotel, which was right on the Via Nazional - one of the main
shopping streets.
Life has been peaceful since
coming home, even amongst all the busyness. Being busy with work and
photography I’ve realised how precious time is. I feel that in ways I’ve been
more creative and productive than ever, because my free time is so fleeting.
And I'm enjoying it with all my heart, anticipating even better times to come!
All the
pictures are taking and edited with my Iphone 5.
