Off The Grid - Estelle, Under A Pink Moon

Images via sunset.com

For as long as I can remember, I've been an enthusiastic daydreamer. And since my first years working in a cubicle I've longed for a drastic escape. "Off the grid" has been my go-to fantasy for a while and more often than not, my mind wanders to the mountains. A place where I would never hang a white board or wear identification on a retractable cord.
I think I could happily live in a small and spare cottage, surrounded by nature, as long as there was a luxurious spot with a view to sit with my coffee in the mornings and sip wine in the evenings. And today I would happily settle for a long weekend in either one of these cabins. - Estelle, Under A Pink Moon

  7. Just gorgeous, and with Estelle's impeccable writing as usual, "not have to wear identification on a retractable cord." I keep telling her she needs to do some professional writing, the lady has a way with words. Love your blog! XX!

  8. completely agree with Shari ~ WRITE for a living ESTELLE! You have the gift!

    Maybe the 'off the grid' fantasy needs to be a reality ~ for writing purposes of course!
