Finally Sydney has started warming up to the heat that I live for in summer. The kind of heat where you can leave your hair wet and it keeps you cool after a cold shower. The kind of heat that kisses your skin with a slight shimmer. The kind of heat where it is acceptable to sleep in only your best underpants.
I can feel it now, that summer is well and truly here. It’s my favourite time of the year. The time when I feel most like myself. Warm, spirited and longing for adventure.
This summer I will spend days lazing about by the ocean with the sand between my toes and a book in my hands taking intermittent dips into the salty blue water. I will come back to the beach for late afternoon swims under the pastel skys. I will eat my weight in mangoes, peaches, apricots, nectarines, grapes and watermelons. I will catch up with friends over smoothies, juices and iced coffees. I will take a two-day road trip with the most adventurous person I know. I will lounge around with my family under a fan with lemonade ice-blocks when the sun becomes all a bit too much.
What I am looking forward to most is a simple, relaxed, well spent summer with the people that I love...
