Bike in a Medieval Town
Cetatea Rasnov is one of my very favorite (medieval) places... I've been there many many times and every time I discover something new in that little "town" with old walls and tiny and hilly streets.
The last time I went there - last summer - I found the place a little busier with a lot more tourists (bitter sweet surprise) but also a lot more "developed": more souvenir stores, some more rustic, some more "chic". And... of course ... I could not walk by without stopping to take a picture of the chic bike against that old medieval wall I liked so much...

California fun
Sun, salty ocean air, tons of fun things to do... That's CA. That and the fun looking cars that are the image of the free Californian spirit and people that know how to live life..
Sometimes I think about would I could have been or done if I were born or at least been part of the CA culture earlier on in my life ... All this crazy East Coast stress and the "I don't have time to even breath" - would these still define me?
I would have probably been the most stressed Californian...

Cali Way
Last November I visited San Diego for the first time... Though so many times before I went over and over in my head "Hmmm... I don't think I'd ever move out of Boston", during any of those 10 days in San Diego my brain was (silently) singing a different tune... More like... "Wow.. is this place for real? Does this really exist? I wish I lived here...".
Nice ocean breeze, nice long beaches with amazing sand and waves, amazing views, amazing food, amazing weather... So... Yes... I am in love with the magical San Diego!

Reflection
Or... On a day when we saw the sun again beyond the highest forts of snow.. On a day when I dared to hope that spring is still a possibility and that ... maybe.. just maybe.. we'll survive this long and abundant winter...
Spring is my very favorite time of the year. I can't wait for that energy that melting snow, freshly new green grass, amazing flowers and flourly smells give me..
I come to live every spring

Leaf
Out of my love for negative space.
I could not pass this opportunity of taking a picture of a leaf and all that negative space, especially this was just outside of my window. Literally. They say opportunities knock... Well.. they do sometimes...

Great Lake of Ice
Walking along the banks of one of the Great Lakes, I came across this spot where cubes of broken ice were floting. Scary and exciting at the same time. It was probably the first time when I saw blocks of ice on a lake as large as a sea. The saltiness does make a difference... Seas and oceans are my favorites, but lakes can be so interesting, too!

Foggy City
My very first day of my very first time in Chicago was foggy and somehow cold. You might think that is a killer for pictures. But I though that foggy evening was just perfect and the fog added personality. Must love that negative space in a picture of a crazy busy windy city.

Memories of Snow
I am rarely impressed (or I'm rarely willingly to admit it)... but that day was really special.
I don't like to be cold! I don't like to deal with snow in the city! I don't like all the yuckiness it creates. And... even so, that was one of the most beautiful days for me. I liked the fluffiness of the snow, the feeling that I turned into a kid again.. the whiteness.. the untouched (almost) snow on the path by the river.. The silence of it... It was... well... magical!

Christmas Cookies
The big flurry snowflakes today made me feel like Christmas again... And what better way to celebrate that than going back to the pictures I took during a wonderful Christmas in Chicago. The Christmas when I felt like a kid again! And what a wonderful feeling that is to have as an adult!

The Unexpected Snow
I do not really follow the weather forecast. So it is not surprising that I am usually surprised by the weather.
These past days , the weather has been nice(r) and warm(er). It made me feel like the winter was over (ha.. I wish.. it is just mid-Jan) and that the spring was down the corner. But.. not so soon...
Big white flurry snow flakes... Dressed up trees... Fluffy everything.. Ok.. Fine.. I can take this.. For a day or two.
