let’s imagine I’m here for my birthday 🥂🍓
Can you imagine just sitting here, maybe leaning against a column, and reading?? Truly a dream ✨
Everyone says there’s no beach at Corniglia. It’s the one town in Cinque Terre that’s not on the waterfront. In fact, it’s so high up a hill that it takes like 300 steps to get there. (My iPhone health data was so proud of me for doing that every day).
Would you all kill me if I just scrapped my current book series because I’m so inspired by Florence and now I want to write a story with red tiled rooftops and magical artists and religious icons and dragons guarding jealously over paintings and the soft light at sunset when all the cypress trees make silhouettes against golden skies?
And so comes the end of a few days in the Tuscan countryside, drinking local wine and spending lazy afternoons in the hammock writing my novel.
Ohhh boy I could get used to this.
If you look very, very closely you will notice I am not actually driving the boat, I am just pretending for the photo.
This photo is giving me: Dickie and Mr. Ripley before an unfortunate oar incident / The Lonely Island ft. T-Pain / Call me Ishmael / an online poll to name a ship Boaty McBoatface / Castaway by the Backyardigans / that one vine where the kid plays Awolnation on the keyboard.
