I have been writing short stories since living away from my home country Switzerland. Living abroad is the encounter of the difference, seeking to understand it, appreciating it. Travelling is searching for the moments, the people, the landscapes. Writing it down is trying to save the moments for longer. The stories you want to tell your grandchildren when you will be old.
The pleasure of traveling – moving – is most often found in the smallest of details. The big splashes are always remembered. But it is the collection of smaller, more intimate moments that often define the memory of a trip!
Enjoy!
After a thorough clean up, Ella Tili insisted on wrapping in her 101 Castor dressing gown!
And then asked: Mama, now that I am all beautiful, can I call Papa?
I hope he comes home soon...
