I’m Santorini dreaming, again…one of my biggest dreams is to visit Greece…Santorini (or the island of Thera), to be exact, and with the summer rapidly approaching, my incessant swooning has been revived. There is something so magical about the vast expanse of ocean surrounding a hillside of pristine white, sun bleached architectural wonder. I think I am fascinated with the place the same way I am drawn to deserts…although Santorini is obviously human-created, it almost has the same, clean, basic, “untouched” look as a desert does. Plus blue being my favorite, calming color and white maybe reminding me of my peaceful childhood days staring up at the pretty white walls and ceilings of Mission San Luis Obispo when my mom would bring me to church, might have something to do with it. I don’t know. But it’s a huge spot on my bucket list, as well as many other, more tropical areas around that side of the world (actually, all over the world…tropical areas perfectly fit the reason why I love deserts!).
