have always felt more at home around nature and city life can wear you out a bit. my preference is the beach although i grew up exploring the woods. was driving by the street of my childhood home when i saw a sign advertising property. drove up the steep hill to find an area that had previously been wooded all cleared. there was a path that led down to the area behind my old house and from this point you could see the hudson river glistening in the distance. something in that moment was very restorative and reassuring that while things may indeed change, there is always a part of home you can return to.
