About

Name:VintagePretty
Location:United Kingdom

An avid tea-drinker who likes nutmeg in her coffee and warm lavender-scented quilts. She knits, crochets and partakes in random acts of craftiness (and kindness). She can often be found studying in a library which is nowhere as relaxing as the garden. She likes obscure works of literature, philosophy and the idea that her mind exists separately from her body. She enjoys moving furniture around, literary criticism and baking bread. She writes haiku about nettles, would like to swim with seals and become completely self-sufficient. She writes as if her life depends on it, listens to beautiful music, and loves her darling husband Mr. VP. Her life has changed dramatically since becoming a student, but she is learning that life is one wild and wonderful ride.

The sea at sunset

The beach at sunset is a totally different animal. Bright blues become muted, colours change, the tinge of orange at the horizon is the only bright, vivid colour to be seen.

I never get sick of the sight of the sea.

It’s impossible not to love it wholeheartedly.

The sea is a force unto itself. It is fast and harsh, yet comforting and lulling. All at once.

I sank my feet into the sand and felt the water rush over my feet. It was amazing, though icy cold.

I loved it.

Two days later? Mr VP and I did it again, but it was oh, so different!

  1. I am completely with you. I am never happier than when I am on the seashore.
