WPC: Favorite Place

Posted on by Marion Driessen

My sanctuary in Portugal: a simple wood cabin that has everything we need. Here I find peace to write, to have long conversations with my muse. To relax and read, far way from every day stress. The cabin is situated on a ridge and overlooks a wide valley. On a clear day, you can even see the ocean in the distance. Several picturesque villages are only a fifteen minute drive away, and the rough coast offers several hiking paths.

Can you see why it is my favorite place? And if you do, would you like to share a simple breakfast in the morning sun with me?

It is winter in the Netherlands! The Dutch are skating on every surface stable enough to hold their weight. Ice fever is running havoc in our little country. But fear not: it is not harmful.

Snow covers the landscape in a gentle white blanket, the light magical. Of course, V-man and I went for a walk yesterday, and that’s when we met this beauty. She was not camera shy, and not people shy either, because she came thundering towards me at full gallop when I called her. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a treat with me. But I did pat, cuddle and whisper sweet nothings. And that was OK too.

For a while I was lost in her big brown eyes. When I looked up, however, I saw other eyes, brown-green ones, that looked at me with the silent request to finally continue in the cold, strong wind. And that’s what I did. Onward! To the next animal. 😉
