Wednesday 25th August


I finally finished the first page of my art journal today.

Whenever I create I feel like the real me.

It makes me wonder why I don’t create more often.

I need to banish those limitations!

Tuesday 24th August.


As my childhood heroine Anne of Green Gables would say,

today I met a kindred spirit.


Thank you for being you Mel.

Monday 23rd August

View from my bedroom window tonight.


I love rainbows.

Seeing one today has done my soul the world of good.

The Rainbow Song below was the first song that I learned in English.

I remember feeling most proud of myself.


Red and yellow and pink and green

Purple and orange and blue

I can sing a rainbow,

sing a rainbow,

sing a rainbow too.


Listen with your eyes,

Listen with your ears,

and sing everything you see,

I can sing a rainbow,

sing a rainbow,

sing along with me.

Sunday 22nd August


The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do,

and the more genuine may be one’s appreciation of fundamental things

like home, and love, and understanding companionship.

Amelia Earhart


Home sweet home.



Saturday 21st August


Bad Salzuflen.

Beautiful.



Delicious.

Friday 20th August


Evenings spent in good company, surrounded by light.






Thursday 19th August


The stunning town of Lemgo.


Meandering streets coupled with medieval alleyways.



Buildings whispering with the wisdom of the old.


Twirling church spires, keeping each other company.



Glowing red roof tops and magical signs.
