Aussie Curves: Song

May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home

I had a lot of great ideas for this week’s Aussie Curves theme, but all plans were put aside when I got a call last Saturday to tell me that one of my cousins had died suddenly. Everything I was going to do this week was put on hold, and I travelled home for the first time in a year.

Michael Buble’s song Home always comes to my mind as I fly in to Gisborne, so I thought I’d share a few photographs from my time down there this week.

As soon as I arrive home, I feel grounded. The smell of the sea air, the feeling of the soft grass underfoot as I look out at the South Pacific Ocean, the four winds rushing through my hair…

Every part of this town holds memories for me, from fun times with friends to heartaches in love to family adventures.

I took advantage of the time I had with my mom to snap some selfies with her. She’s off to live overseas soon, and I’m going to miss her terribly.

While I was home I did some homely things – including baking a Devil’s Food Cake for my cousin to take to her prizegiving. I didn’t taste it, but by all accounts it was “totally the best cake ever”. I’ll take that as a win.

All of the sunrises and sunsets were beautiful. I could stay there forever, just immersed in nature. It’s soothing for my soul.

All too soon, my week at home was over. I flew home on Saturday night and am now trying to find all of words that I have lost this week. Thank you so much for all of the love and kind words sent my way this week, I’m truly humbled by what wonderful readers I have.

What song would you use to describe your week?
