Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur

Busy busy working day today. I slept in later than I planned, so had a super quick jump under the shower, and then nipped out to get coffee and a croissant, before the first meeting (which was actually pushed to tomorrow). Lots of stuff to get through, even though the meetings were reduced to two, so I ended up working about nine hours in total. So I was quite wiped. I did consider eating out for dinner, but I was pretty full from finishing off last night's dinner for a late lunch (during meeting number 2 where I was mostly just listening and watching and making a few notes). So I decided to just head out and see what I decides. I did a lot of wandering, ate an ice cream, went to the supermarket for a couple of bits and bobs and then explored some more and found myself walking along a wonderful wall, with crashing waves on one side and beautiful clusters of little old buildings, in a gorgeous colour palette (that I am going to have to steal for some art), on the other side and lots of beautiful plants all the way along. And then that brought me back to opposite my apartment. Where I am settling down to an evening (or possibly one episode, because it's already 10pm) of Artful Dodger o Disney and baguette and butter and cheese. And maybe a glass of something (currently that something is fizzy water, but there is a choice of beer and prosecco in the fridge).

I realised that walks like that are what I do this for and why it's not a waste to go travelling while I have work to do. Because even after a nine-hour working day, I can still go and find that hour or so beauty and wonder.Meer informatie
