sky high

a flashback to argentina while being sky high in london

"There comes a time when you look into the mirror and you realize that what you see is all that you will ever be. And then you accept it. Or you kill yourself. Or you stop looking in mirrors."

Tennessee Williams 

Argentina

my three months in argentina are almost finished and I have to face europe again. not looking forward to it, it feels like at home in mendoza, I got used to sun every day and to the warmth of my new family. but - a new adventure is waiting in old/new london, this time with a husband on board. and a second-hand cat for a few months.
but for now - a few souvenirs from andes.

dragon-tooth garden and co

'here at the seas's edge
i have planted my dragon-tooth garden..'

we went to visit two gardens with the boys.
a bit tired (or shall i call it by its name - hungover), mellowed by the may sun
we went to sussex and dungeness, quite close to each other, but so different.
in sussex we went to the great dixter garden, very sophisticated.
and dungeness, this weird bit of a coast, is a home to a power station and derek jarman's cottage and garden.
it's a very special garden, grown on a land where it's difficult to imagine anything can actually grow..
it's poetic and ethereal, the lack of any fence makes it disappear into the landscape
