The story behind this pattern:

Armchair

I love to travel, sometimes far away, like this summer to Tanzania. Discovering new countries, cultures, and people gives me energy. But no matter where I am, before long I start missing my armchair at home, just to sit down and read a book.

The day I return home, that’s the very first thing I do. I curl up in my armchair, grab my book, and read for hours until I feel completely satisfied. What a relief! And my dirty laundry? That can wait ;-).

Want to know what I’m reading? Women Who Run With the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés, a must-read for every woman within us.

What do you miss most when you travel? And do you unpack your dirty laundry right away?
