Today we said goodbye to the last of the summer heat. The pressure has shifted and the sun is nowhere to be found. It seems that today should finally be the day to share a glimpse of Greece — the trip that will forever be marked in my memory as one of the most profound and significant moments of my 30th year.

It keeps rippling into my life a month later… with each reflection I learn something new, I see something differently and so I cannot yet write about it. As Elliott Erwitt put so perfectly: “The whole point of taking pictures is that you don’t have to explain things with words.” Maybe I’ll have the words when I am 32. Until then, please enjoy the images.
