end of summer.

'Summer memories last forever.'

I've only come back from my summer holidays 2 days ago but I can already feel that Autumn is approaching. And honestly, I am excited. I love Autumn, rainy days in bed, cuddling up, transitional dressing.. Everything. Nevertheless this Summer has been a very good one and somehow I don't wanna let go. 

I found this so-called 'end of summer tag' online and quite liked the idea of reflecting one last time on all the Summer memories before diving into Autumn.

( little side-note: I adapted the questions a little bit, so this is not the original tag but my own version of it. Feel free to answer the questions yourself if you fancy. )

____

1. What was your favourite vacation this year?

Italy. As much as I enjoyed my other holidays, Italy has always been on my travel bucket-list and it's truly been magical. Keep your eyes open, a lot of beautiful content from Italy is about to be published soon, here on the blog as well as on Instagram.

____

2. Pool, lake or ocean?

If I had a very stressful time, I'd definitely say the ocean.
However on a hot summer day a swimming pool would be my first choice.

____

3. When does Summer end for you?

Now, today, on the 18 of September - the day before school starts and I will go back to reality.

____

4. Do you have Summer plans for next year?

Honestly, I don't. I will hopefully be done with high school until then but what follows is still a mystery. I don't have decided yet on what I wanna study, neither where.
So I guess we will see what happens.

5. Favorite moment?

This Summer has brought so much to me, I can not even put into words how much I needed a
time-out from my daily routine. I feel so much more content and happy right now, it's strange, in a good way. I am so thankful for all the new memories. My favourite moment? I don't really know. But I guess the moment when I finally let go of everything that has been bothering me all these weeks and months was a good one. 

____

6. Favourite song?

My two playlists: 'spring/summer edit'18' and my 'late-summer-playlist'. 

Check them out for some really nice tunes.

____

7. What did you do for the first time this summer?

Nothing, I guess. But I have been to the cinema for the first time in a really long time, if that counts?
I love watching films but I still can't get my head around going to the cinema to actually see a film instead of watching movies in my pyjamas at home. 

____

8. Describe your summer in 3 words?

sweaty, relaxing & mind opening 

____

9. Favourite quote?

This one:

'Consciously soak in moments. Turn them into movies, into stills. Don't ever forget the seconds that make life soft and beautiful. Collect them. Review them in your dreams.'

____

10. Favourite food this summer?

Ice cream. Yep definitely ice cream.
I can not even tell you how excited I was to finally eat some real italian ice cream.

See you soon,
