Dream home

Speaking of dreams (keeping our dreams going is the theme of this blog, remember? :>), my hostbrother Didier's son, Antoine, gave me this drawing of his as souvenir before I left France for Jakarta in 2002. "C'est ta maison" he said to me. "It's your home". Wow, my 'nephew' had a vision ;-)

This is the drawing:



Then, keeping my promise to Antoine, I had the drawing framed and hang it now on the wall in my room. Four years have passed and it's still my favorite drawing, and sometimes I wonder if I am somewhere near that dream now ;-) Red house seems like a Swedish summer house (where on earth did Antoine get the idea of painting the house red?), a big tree means it's not in the city center, aqua-blue sky and golden shining sun, a cheerful day ;-) where (I'll repeat - if can't say copy ;> - Joanna's dream) I could read books in the morning... with a cup of hot coffee in my hands...

Oh, how I miss summer lunches in the garden!
