Today I went to the botanical gardens with my friend to get some inspiration. 

I realize how little I notice in nature, how many leaves come out of a stem, how a tree towers over me and cools me, and how bugs, particularly bees, enjoy and pollinate the beautiful flowers around me. 

I also got to smell some very interesting things, many flowers that smelled like mint, basil, or dill. Thank you to my tour guide Abdullah!

Building a little space at /thenextwave and watching everything on /videolab.

My in-laws are close by so keep me posted when you do in case I’m around too. :)

Not yet! Next time I’m in Europe I’ll go!

Nature is the most inspiring!

Have you ever been to Grasse to visit the gardens and perfumeries? Seems like something you’d love so wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve already done this.

Hey look I was inspired by the same flowers!!!

oooh purple coneflower is one of my favorites... and bees love it

Reading this felt like a breath of fresh air. Amazing how much life is in the quiet details 🌸

Beautiful botanical photography! There's something magical about slowing down to really observe nature's intricate details - from the delicate structure of leaves to the busy work of pollinators. Those moments of mindful observation can be so grounding and inspiring. 🌿✨
