Wow. I could feel your deep love for and the pulsing life of the city in every single line of this, Anna. And, oh how you inspire me and at the same time get me. For, I, too, feel most alive in the heart of the city. The forest and the seas give me deep calm, but the city gives me life. So much so that Lina and I will be moving from our mid-size city to Stockholm in a year. And we cannot wait to start our new love affair there. ❤️

It’s so interesting how life moves us in different circles and cycles and new adventures and homecomings. So, if I understand you correctly, you are moving back and away from the city? xx

I love this. I’m beginning to realise we are very alike. Yes that’s right, moving from the city and back into a small town, which to be fair is only an hour and 20 minutes train from the city. But it’s not living in the city. I have my window open right now (I clearly have not learned from the mosquito bite) and I can hear the laughter and deep chats from all the gardens, each garden with such small footage, city houses crammed one on top of another. People enjoying the long warm night. It’s just so wonderful x

I love that we are alike, kindred spirits even. I am so grateful for the connection. 🫶🏻

The sounds of the city. One of the best things about open window season! (Minus the bugs and such.. hehe)

Sending you so much energy of peace and calm as you embark on this new journey back to a small town. ❤️
