For this weekend’s challenge, I didn’t have to think long.
From spring till fall, my favorite spot is hidden in the back of my garden, surrounded by bushes. And though I don’t have a porch, it still swings.
This swing is the perfect place to sit and contemplate, to read, drink tea and wine. To talk and laugh deep into the night. And on sunny moments, my neighbors in the butterfly bush flutter and fly, or just watch and listen.
What is your favorite spot? I hope you can spend some time there this weekend 🙂

Oh I do like your favourite spot, Marion. I have a canvas swing seat that I suspend on our sun roof in the Algarve. I can admire the view for hours.

I can imagine, the Algarve has stunning landscapes. I hope you get to sit there often, even in winter.

The minute it is warm enough, you can dash outside. Do you have a place like this too, Colline?

Unfortunately no as we live in an apartment. 😦

Perhaps you have a balcony with a nice view then? 🙂

Unfortunately not – unless you enjoy looking at rows and rows of concrete buildings. We do, however, visit the nearby parks.

Having parks nearby is a good thing.
