I don’t usually keep a journal, but I spent most of this month in Canada, a trip that’s been on my bucket list since I was little. I wanted to write down the small details so I can look back one day and remember not just what I saw, but how it felt. The trip also turned out to be extra special, as my partner proposed while we were there. It’s not quite finished, as I’m still reflecting and enjoying it all.

The light in the doorway of my granny’s home, drawn from a photo taken on the last day I ever stood there. Holding onto a place, a memory, and the quiet things we leave behind.
