Cowper Band

a second home is a place you long for; somewhere you’ve banked a small piece of your heart for safe keeping because you loved it so. once you do this, you cross a line – you have traded eternal contentment for a higher level of happiness, and subsequently a higher level of yearning. for me it was 8 years ago in a cold swedish lakeside town when i cut my heart and gifted fragments; not to places, but to the people of my kind.

now, at last, it is time to return. not to reclaim, but to visit the fragments and their keepers.

i am so excited.

i’ll be in switzerland, italy, germany, spain and anywhere else possible for 4 weeks from the 16th september. if you’d like a visitor, feel free to say hello.

i’d love it if anyone has a little bar or bookstore (better!) that they’d like me to play in…i promise to smile every minute of the way.

(p.s., the picture is a teaser of more to come…an amazing weekend project with the lovely jen dainer and jasmine whelan – so much fun!)
