I have been to cathedrals. I have seen numerous photos of Sagrada Familia in the course of my art history degree. And my jaw was still on the floor. Haven’t been posting much since I’m in the middle of 6 weeks in Spain, but please enjoy this cave and underground lake in Mallorca. Exploring some old logging trails 🪵 love these guys looking half-dead but still bright. an inspiration. Cypress roots like little gravestones or fingers. Maybe the best thing about being back in the US (aside from the whole ‘family’ thing) is having access to an English library again. Walking in and just dazzled by all the books! I can read! For free! Someone write something about this delightful flower bed at the Biltmore. Made the pilgrimage to my absolute favorite coffee roasters, JumpinGoat Coffee in Helen, GA. Mom’s pretty thrilled to not have to send heavy bags of coffee to Japan anymore, and I pitched them on starting international shipping. ☕️ Sorry not sorry for the nature spam
