Hello! I haven't added here any new posts for over two years now, but I see you still read my story, and that's absolutely insane! Thank you!

Well, I have published two books since I stopped publishing here - Once Upon a Time There Were Two Poetry Books... & Laura's Diary - My Awesome Life . And I got a new blog now.

Note No. 45. Higher Power, Isles and Learning Lessons

-
1 st September 1820   I have not written for few days, but I had my reasons… William fell of the horse, he has got injured unmercifully. I had to ease his suffering for last few days. My poor man. Listen how it happened. Beautiful Italian land. Warm and beautiful. We went for a ride around the suburbs of Rome. We reached one of tops of seven hills.

I love gardens. When I remind myself those English gardens… I was truly delighted. I made few sketches. I will have to take home with me few of those trends. Gardens at Stowe probably made a mark on my brain the best… Huge it was. The must-see place. It was one of first spots we visited just after we arrived in England. Trip from Gdansk was also fascinating. I did not feel so terrible on seas… Two weeks of constant movements… But views al...
