We didn’t really plan anything we just went out for a walk you know? We live right by the sea and the mountains are super close too so we thought why not snap some pics while we are at it.
First shot’s the hills we see every single day, rolling all the way up to the big mountains in the distance. There’s little farms spread out everywhere and a river snaking through the valley.
That yellow flower just popped up in the frame did not even plan it but it makes the whole thing feel brighter.
Those hills are not just pretty to look at though people grow rice and corn up there and it’s where most of our neighbors make their living. Sometimes you just need to climb up a bit to really see how much work goes into keeping all that land going.
Then there’s this view of the water one side’s the open ocean waves crashing hard against the rocks and the other’s this calm little cove where the water’s so clear and blue.
Everyone around here knows this spot. We come here to fish early in the morning or just hang out on the beach when the sun starts to go down. That hill sticking out into the sea? My grandpa says his dad used to stop there when he was traveling between villages it’s been a landmark forever.
The two smaller ones are my favorites. One’s driftwood on the sand with the sun breaking through the clouds right as it was setting. We always find bits of driftwood washed up here some folks take it home to make chairs or hang on their walls.
The last one’s just palm trees against the pink and orange sky. That’s how every night ends here pretty much warm air bugs starting to buzz and the waves just going whoosh whoosh in the background.
We did not go anywhere fancy. Just wandered a bit more than usual paid attention to stuff we normally pass by and wanted to keep these moments. This place is home it’s the hills the sea all of it and honestly? It’s pretty perfect.
