city girl in the country



June 20, 2014

I’m a self-proclaimed city girl – but that doesn’t mean I don’t love the country too. The state of Washington is just amazing, while the Seattle boats and skyscrapers have their allure, the rolling hills and grassy plains have an air of magic to them. We went on a little road trip last weekend to visit my brother. His family moved from Maui to a small farm a few months ago, seeking a slower, organic life. We ate fresh strawberries and spinach from the garden and the meat eaters ate meat they had raised. It’s a delicious life, where 9 to 5 doesn’t rule your life, where family comes first and the dirt never leaves your fingernails.

    I am a complete city girl, but I still need lots of trips to the countryside, they are good for the soul!

HELLO

Decor and home with a little bit of daydreaming and real life sprinked in. My husband and I are slowly updating our 1900 Dutch Colonial. I love hunting for vintage and flying the pacific northwest and the world with my aviator husband.
