In honour of International Museum Day, I will take a Lufthansa flight to Germany and visit a museum there, then get on another flight to Paris, or maybe I should just buy a train ticket around continental Europe and visit all the museums…yeah, in my dreams.
Anyway, HAPPY Museum Day! Here’s a kid’s drawing of what an art “musseme” looks like. That’s a big door. Lots of windows too. Has that kid ever heard of conservation?
you get to bike on roads lined by pine woods, immersed in a smell that you used to know so well, like a new air freshener held inches from your nose but crisper because of its authenticity. Sometimes you’re chased by a thunderstorm for miles, and you’re caught, seeing and fearing and being entirely awed by lightning for the first time in months. Sometimes you get to collapse in your own bed after stripping off mud smeared clothes, and the feeling of the sheets against your skin gives way to this unparalleled familiarity that immediately casts away your unease, about lightning among other things. Sometimes, even with so much to look forward to far away, you know that home is exactly where you should be for the time being.
