I am listening to [mystery location], intent, my eyes closed;
Then suddenly birds fly by,
Flocks of birds, high up, with a hue and cry,
While the nets are drawn in the fishing grounds
And a woman’s feet begin to dabble in the water.
I am listening to [mystery location], intent, my eyes closed.
Guess where I was?
I haven’t been spending much time in Brussels of late due to work. Neither have I had much time to read or write.
Fortunately, I managed to fit in some time to explore during my recent work trip. While I’ve not reviewed or edited all the photos that I took with my phone, here’s a diptych that I made with two initial images.

Beautiful pics all around your blog! These two above look familiar, I guess it was on the Mediterranean Sea, it may be Sicily, Greece or Turkey!
You were right – these were taken in Istanbul 🙂
I knew it! 🙂 I come from Puglia, southern region of Italy.. they were looking so familiar! Looking forward to see you on our shores 😉
I first visited Italy in 2008, and we were in Puglia, Campania & Basilicata. I would love to return to see more of these regions and to re-visit some of the places that we enjoyed (e.g. Ostuni) 🙂
Just give us a shout whenever you’d like to come back!
What a lovely diptych — I love the matching blues! Were you by chance in Portugal?
Thanks Heather! These were taken in Istanbul actually. Though I see why you’ve suggested Portugal (just remembered the blue-white tiles in Porto) 😉
Istanbul! How adventurous of you!! Well, thanks for unveiling the mystery.
