    Oh I love this! You’ve managed to convey a completely different pace of life in just your first few days, and capturing the cat with the waggy tail of a dog was perfect! Xx

    Glad you remembered the apartment correctly. It does look comfy but elegant. Are you able to describe how the air feels & smells & what you can hear?(I wonder if some day in the future that video will be able to transmit these things?!) Thanks from New Zealand.

      Thanks Gaye. You know it’s only since being here that I realise that having bad flu in January seems to have diminished my sense of smell! I have to be right next to something to smell it. I’m hoping it returns …… I’ll try and get some sounds for you though - try out my wind socked microphone! It’s a noisy city.

      Hi Wendy. Thank you so much. I bought three second hand ‘tea dresses’ by Toast (a UK brand) specifically to go away with - all from Vinted and a big mustard slightly fluffy cardigan by Eileen Fisher, also from Vinted. They were perfect for the weather which felt warm to me though most locals were in black padded jackets and caramel coloured hats and scarves. X
