Once upon a time…

“Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering. ” – The History of Love, by Nicole Krauss.

These two love birds’ expressions in this photo reminds me of this quote.

Travelogue: Edinburgh

When I traveled to Scotland in May with M, I had an inkling that I would fall in love with the Scottish Highlands. After all, I’ve seen so many wonderful photos. But I had no idea that I would like Edinburgh so much. Emerging from the Waverley train station, we were immediately greeted by views of the Royal Mile. I thought, wow we are walking straight into history. The entire city seems to have been built with the exact same kind of stone, the kind that yellows a bit with age. There’s something about old cities that I just love, I like knowing that the city did not tear something down just because it was over 50 years old.
Edinburgh felt like a city that aged well, and proudly! There was not a single sky scraper in sight. Throughout the few days we were there, it drizzled and sprinkled the kind of rain that Scotland seems to specialize in when it isn’t pouring :) The sun made rare appearances. Because of that, afternoon cream tea stops felt especially lovely. 
Below is one of my favourite photos from the city, a look down a typical “close” off of the Royal Mile, which is a narrow alley. 
If you haven’t been, plan a visit now. Please?

Toronto Skyline

I feel like everyday there are new condos going up in the city! Soon the Toronto skyline will be nothing but skyscrapers.

la dolce vita

Just some favourite quotes to share on traveling :)

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

“Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.” – Miriam Beard

“Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quiestest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey.” – Pat Conroy
