Rhodes

Aloha beautiful souls. We are back home again. After living 7 years away from my fatherland and reading 'Breakfast at Tiffany's during our holidays I really believe that home is where your heart belongs. I built little nest in Scotland but part of my heart always will be in Poland where my parents live.
People have need of travelling in their system. At least I do have. The need of change, break, distance yourself from every day reality, distance form everything which we know and get used to. World is such a big place and there is so much to see, experience and learn from it. I had my break at Rhodes. I could not even imagine how beautiful that place can be. I wrote few days ago in my morning pages: 'sun, goats on the beach, snails and lemon tress, juicy and sweet tomatoes, cats and olives and no rush at all, everything is away, my thoughts are calm, I am relaxed, resting at last! It is so good to have time to sketch the sunset or sleeping Scott when I am awake already in the morning. It is so good to switch off all must, should and have to and just be, just breathe and be for the moment.'
Everybody is different. We are all special and unique. Everybody experiences things in their own way. This my little experience of Greece which I would like to share with you,  captured in the camera. I hope you enjoy it too.

  1. OHH very jealous Aga! I can almost smell the olive trees! I have not been to Rhodes though I have been to several other Greek Islands and loved them all, Still I'm sure its nice to be home, the west of scotland has had some lovely weather recently, though not perhaps as hot as Greece!

  2. Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos Aga. I'd love to visit Greece one day. Actually I have a very long bucket list of places I'd love to go :)I think we'd make great travel buddies! I know what you mean about your heart belonging in your home. Although I have been raised here in the US, I was born in France and have visited my relatives many times. I have always felt so close to them and to that country-it has a very special place in my heart. May the memories of your trip keep your soul warm for a long time :)

  5. Aga, thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures. Greece is one of the places I would love to visit and now I have through your eyes. I love where I live now and love the home we created but even now years and years later if someone asks me where I am from I will say New Jersey.

    Thank you so much for sharing your pictures and your thoughts. Have a great week.
