The breath of air













The day before we left, my dad drove me to a place, very far from any village. It was the end of the afternoon, and the light was slowly lowering. All the hikers were gone and we were alone. The only thing we heard was the breath of air and the screeching call of the marmots. It was magic.
On our way back, I saw a little very simple house with a sign "for sale".
I dreamed to how it would be to live there. And it felt good, serene...

What a magical landscape! I can imagine spending hours looking at the shadows shifting across the craggy surface of the mountains...
