I have been thinking about this kind of travel too whereby I'll just explore the towns around me due to my inability to detach myself from my grown kids... Sighs.
The first shot reminds me of the coast and my love for revisiting history through old towns. What a saying heritage in all its worn glory. If it is any consolation, we are yet to attain Finland's way of preserving her old towns.
It doesn't take much to "get away from reality" a bit - just sit somewhere different for a few hours and the world perspective changes :)
Hope you are well Tez!
Yes, it doesn't and I desperately need to.
Hanging in there somewhere. Thanks for asking 🔆
