Midday sun on a fall day while you lean your back on a tree and close your eyes facing the sun rays. Pop into the cabin for a coffee, put on a record, but close the curtains, the sun is a little strong after the stroll. Nina Simone is the record of choice, and it’s wild how many songs on it you recognise as covers. She’s the original.
After the fika it’s back in the sun for a few hours before trying the wood fire shower. It’s been a while since you lit a fire, so that’s the hardest part of the day. Then you stand under hot water in the cold forest air, steam coming off your shoulders, Nina still going somewhere behind you, and you catch yourself daydreaming about staring up into a sky full of trees. Except your eyes are open and that’s exactly where you are.
