Our Roman Holiday at the Outset of the Pandemic Outbreak
We happened to visit Rome, last February(2020) when Italy was about to become the world’s worst Covid-19 affected countries. We were oblivious of the virus outbreak there, and we had this trip planned months in advance. At that time, there was just one case in Germany from where we started. We (un)fortunately didn’t check the number of cases or severity in Italy. We met my husband’s colleague at the station, who was traveling elsewhere; who lightly hinted that there is coronavirus in the air there. We however didn’t even think about giving heed and jumped into our train as we lugged the baby stroller and our luggage along. We were going. The four of us, me, my husband, our two kids who were about eight and two at that time.

One Night in Mykonos
After There's nothing like a world-wide pandemic to make you miss the sweet smell of the Mykonos coastline! I somehow wandered down a rabbit hole of photos from my trip to the Greek Islands in October of 2019, which inspired this particular submission! Our entire trip was breathtaking, each stop presenting a new wonder and a renewed sense of appreciation for the natural beauty of this great planet! I quickly learned that Greek hospitality welcomes you with open arms, dry white wine and plenty of olives!

Ancient Mysteries
Troubadours; poets and storytellers of the middle ages. That's what this small black notebook reminded Ben of. Flipping through its weathered parchment pages, the smell of familiarity permeated his nostrils. Deja vu vivified his perception. He stood, rapt in stillness. An image appeared in his mind's eye.
