nostalgia.

last week I asked my family to look for some old photographs of the place where I used to spend my summers as a child. my mother's family has always owned a little cottage on the Alps 2000 meters above sea level: when I was a little girl I didn't really understand the beauty of the place but now I would love to visit it again.
old photograph found by my uncle:

photos taken by my dad in the 90's:

I especially love this panorama!
thanks to these photographs and more that my family had sent me I could recollect some lovely childhood memories and travel a bit with my mind during Easter break - while I had actually stayed in Helsinki.
I wish you a lovely start of April!
