A Weekend in the Countryside

Farm tables, long walks through olive groves, and the kind of quiet that stays with you after you leave.

We left the city with no plan beyond arriving somewhere green. Two nights in a stone cottage, a shared kitchen table, and evenings that ended when the candles did.

The best part was not a landmark. It was the unhurried meals, the walk that went longer than intended, and the feeling of being unreachable in the best way.

Travel does not always need to be ambitious. Sometimes the gift is simply a change of pace.
