It has already been two years?!




A meditation from my book Smash Your T.V. and Have Adventures:


I miss the way that it rains in Reykjavík. In the morning when you wake up, you can barely hear the whispering cadence that the water makes on the window. I hate the way the rain falls elsewhere––droplets the size of my thumb print hit the Earth. Reykjavík is misty––the rain gently embraces your body. I wish that the feeling could last forever. Sometimes if you stop thinking so much, you can hear the wind whistle in time to the shower.

that was really beautiful. Especially because I adore rain :)

and that picture is so cute! Is that the place you were talking about? I love the colors...

Yeah! I was in Reykjavik two years ago and have been thinking about it a lot (well, I always do because I am an Iceland fanatic! :) Gorgeous city.
