postcards from the 70's.

my wonderful grandma gave me this set of 18 postcards that she found in her mother's belongings. (: they are beautiful postcards from the mid 70's when my great grandma went for an adventure in Italy. postcards bring me away, away to places i know only from my daydreams of a carefree and wanderlust life that i'd like to think is waiting for me.

"i think, 'maybe we are like heartbeats', an internal rhythm; the slow flow of life. or maybe outside is inside is outside and we are all one and the same."
-Mexico Rosel

i hope you all have golden days drenched with happy! (after all, we are all one and the same)
i will show you more postcards from this set in awhile, in better, clearer pictures. these were taken in quite a hurry so they aren't too good!

p.s. i will be going for the HP7 Pt. 2 premiere tomorrow night! (: this is one of those times i feel like i'm the luckiest girl ever and i extra-thank God for all that i have.
