i had the good fortune to spend last week in italy (my first visit!) for a much-needed vacation. i was near the sea for most of the week in liguria (in and around camogli, a small fishing village near portofino), then i took a short trip to cinque terre, and then on to florence/tuscany for 3 days.

and what a week i had. the bulk of my time was spent eating (the food! man oh man), drinking wine, exploring, snacking on focaccia formaggio di Recco, taking hikes to small swimming holes along the rocky coast, reading, sunbathing, swimming, daydreaming. it was incredible. i’m feeling rested, inspired, and very lucky.

this week and next, i’m going to be sharing photographs and stories from my trip with you here. i hope you’ll enjoy it.
