An open field rolls downwards to a valley of mist and the distant sound of running water.

It’s the kind of place meditation apps come to get their content.

Excellence is carrying everything for a weekend in a cart to a cabin and not being able to message anyone about it.

Cooking - remembering what it feels like when it’s not a chore while looking out at rolling hills to the soundtrack of a babbling creek.

Wood smoke, the earthy smell of ground coffee and some crispy-edged marshmallows. Breakfast of champions.

In the morning the sun is our alarm clock.We’re visited by a herd of cows. Sitting in our warm bed while they stare, who’s watching who here?

As we leave we turn to farewell Louka, nestled in the river bend like a favourite toy hugged by a puppy.
