What makes me smile (travel edition)
- The prospect of meeting my family soon.
- The surprising sight of newly fallen snow on the way out of Oslo.
- Noticing, right after the airport security check, that I still had a half-full bottle of water with me.
- Discovering a magazine I had liked before (‘samtiden’), and buying it.
- Starting to read that magazine and, again, being delighted by its quality.
- A pear, an apple, and raw cashew nuts.
- A sunbath for face and mind on the plane, for two hours straight.
- The sense that, landing in Salzburg, I understood what my singing teacher had talked about: the deep feeling of coming home (as expressed, in his case, by the song ‘Ved Rundarne’).
