I currently have a stack of clothes piled high on a suitcase. As I think of something I will need for my teaching trip in Italy I throw another item on the pile. I leave on Thursday and I have yet to sort, iron, take items away etc. I will take one suitcase for clothes and then a smaller suitcase for my art supplies and kits for the class.
I do this enough that last minute I have to quickly come to reason about the person I THINK I will be when I travel and the person I will really be. That takes the pile down in half.
My carry-on will also have my leather notebook full of fresh paper, good writing pens and pencils (can’t live without them), a book I have been anxious to read, my headphones for music, and a sketchbook/simple watercolor set/graphite and water brush.
A flight from here to there. I don’t usually watch movies and I rarely hook up to wi-fi. It is exactly what I need before landing and having my eyes open to the beauty of another place.
So, when I was thinking about what to share for this month I knew I wanted to share things that just made me smile, be present or made me want to slow down. Below are some of my favorites from this month.
