home is where our heart feels comfortable. home is where our people are. sometimes we feel misplaced. it is then, when we need to give ourselves time to find our way back home.

last sunday we met our good friend julianna with her mum at a cafe by the sea. as i am not supposed to have coffee or any tea apart from herbal, i always have a sachet of my favourite herbal tea with me. the waiter gave me a funny look when i said “a cup of hot water for me, please” when the rest of my company had ordered cappuccinos and lattes.

when the cup of hot water arrived and i dipped my sachet in, the waiter asked me what kind of tea i was having. i offered him a sniff of it. he absolutely loved it! the truth is i know nobody who wouldn’t like this tea.

the scenery was so beautifully wintry and so much inspiring. i took lots of photos which, unfortunately, i had to split in two posts so you wouldn’t get bored scrolling down.

how much do i like these photos of will davidson. just in the right mood!

colourful book art from jenni rope.

stay tuned for the part two post!

lots of interesting things to share with you today.

yummy bread recipe by momo. she gives the best bread recipes in her blog.

new glasses which i am very happy for. it took me one whole morning to decide and just 30 min to have them ready!

new workspace, sharing joe’s desk with him and cookie. the vet misheard his name and called him no cookie. so i call him no cookie, too!

i also cant believe how fast this beautiful flannel tova dress by wiksten has sold out! oh, i guess i have to wait for jenny’s next shop update!

the tea towel post to follow soon!

today has been a very good day. after successfully completing all my errands, i had a long walk around plaka where i had to meet my cousin.

on my way to our meeting point, i came across this so-me shop. everything was so beautifully curated and inviting that i had to buy something. i finally acquired a lovely so-paris tea towel, which was made in london! i call this the globalisation effect! {photos of the towel to come cause i am writing this post at my sister’s place}.

later on, meeting my cousin was so much fun. we had tentura at brettos where we talked and talked and talked about almost everything. i felt her warmth and compassion and i realise how nice it is to have honest and truly nice people around me, especially this time of my life.

i am also designing my new business card and i had a look around athens’ paper shop district.  i was finally treated to free card stock by a lovely guy with whom i shared my enthusiasm and some of my creative ideas! i am so grateful for this day!

photos from our farm, outside of agrinio. going there next week!
