2) Spring: Spring is my favourite time of the year. It is not too hot and not too cold, AND it smells like flowers everywhere you go.
3) Sitting under the sun and tanning in summer.
4) Taking long walks with a Gelato to accompany me.
5) Going for runs.
6) PIZZA!
7) Trying to find a quite place that serves good food and bomb coffee.
8) Taking pictures.
9) Doing or encountering something unexpected.
10) A good view.
11) Travelling.
12) Learning new languages.
13) Awe-inspiring architecture.
14) Catching up with good friends
These are the things that I love wholeheartedly, irrespective of where I am. Most of them are the vastly underestimated pleasures of life that one pay's no mind to. A year ago I, too, did not know that I could enjoy lying on a bench with my eyes closed, letting the sun's rays soak into my bones, holding no particular train of thought.
These are the things that I as a city bred individual missed out on. The one thing that my time in a small Austrian town has taught me is to take pleasure in doing the small things. You do not have to bend over backwards trying to chase after something more. Do not get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with wanting more. Hell, I am the poster girl for it, it is just that you should not loose sight of the bigger picture in your run for more, which we almost always do.
So just breathe and let go. Enjoy the moment you are present in.
