Today’s sketch of the day in my moleskine art journal is of an antique miniature filigree clog used in Turkish hamams. I discovered them at an antique shop in Beysehir, Turkey. They are made of wood and a layer of silver sheet covers the top.
If the shoe fits, buy it ;p

Amen!

We need to build an application to do that! 🙂

Thank you for this. I am learning something new. Traveling broadens my mind and makes me appreciate my own home. Have a good week Brian x

I currently love my art journal to capture the most important memories but it only works for me 😃

Yes I definitely didn’t want to come home. Plants half dead, bills to pay and reality to deal with. Ho hum!

Bon week-end ma chère Tiffany. Aprés tant d’aventures… There is a poem by Du Bellay you may know. Since I’m there might as well paste it:
Heureux qui, comme Ulysse, a fait un beau voyage,
Ou comme cestuy-là qui conquit la toison,
Et puis est retourné, plein d’usage et raison,
Vivre entre ses parents le reste de son âge !
Quand reverrai-je, hélas, de mon petit village
Fumer la cheminée, et en quelle saison
Reverrai-je le clos de ma pauvre maison,
Qui m’est une province, et beaucoup davantage ?
Plus me plaît le séjour qu’ont bâti mes aïeux,
Que des palais Romains le front audacieux,
Plus que le marbre dur me plaît l’ardoise fine :
Plus mon Loir gaulois, que le Tibre latin,
Plus mon petit Liré, que le mont Palatin,
Et plus que l’air marin la doulceur angevine.
Take care
Brian

Agree so. For a long time I stopped taking photographs ’cause I realized that taking pictures robbed me of the visual memories. I recalled events and places better when I had no camera. 🙂
PS. Which memory shop would you recommend?

OMG. Sometimes missing a flight is not bad. Might’ve been a desperate and unconscious attempt at staying a day more? Bienvenue chez toi. 🙂
(Hope all is well at home. The plants have been watered, the cat fed, and all logistics are fine)
June 19, 2015 at 15:35
Yes I’m home safe! Missed my flight but that’s another story 😆
June 19, 2015 at 15:34
No I buy memories not things 😜

Well I was a tad late this week, my dear Tiffany, in reading your lovely posts.
I guess you’ll be going home soon.
That generally produces the equivalent of a moral hangover after such a long and lovely time away.
From Chamonix to London and Istanbul and back.
‘t’s all right. You’ve filled your eyes with many wonders.
(Still working on the story in my head. It will take anything from a few weeks to a few months. I can never tell beforehand. I will send you the draft when it’s all written)
Take care.
Brian

Absolutely lovely. Did you buy one?
(Or will the drawing be enough for memory?)
June 10, 2015 at 18:34
Thank you Elle x
June 10, 2015 at 18:33
A discovery for me too!
June 10, 2015 at 14:09
