A Room With A View

The other day I came across an interesting blog.
The View from Your Window is the name of a blog & a now a book. Sit back and enjoy the view from an array of villages, cities, countrysides & quite possibly the neighbors next door. You never know who you might run into to. Then click a photo of your view, send it to The View from Your Window and join the global village.

Even in a big city, you experience differences in light.

You may be happy simply looking up at the sky.

A view can be a lifeline to nature and beauty.

Your view might be so familiar that you really don't see it at all.    
A view of your private garden reminds you to go there often.

Somehow we all seem to hunger for a room with a view.

  5. Love the site, thank you.
    As always you find the greatest treasures.
    My favorite view was my bedroom window in 1976. We were living in Constantia South Africa upon a hill overlooking the vineyards.
    Breathtaking. That & the passion fruit vine growing on the fence from which we'd daily pluck heaven are my strongest memories of our Out of Africa adventure.

  7. I've often thought I would be happy no matter how small my little space was as long as I had a big window, lots of light and something wonderful to look over. The vista. That's the key, isn't it. And, now a book. So happy you told us. xx's
