This is one of my favorite moments. We were travelling in Rome and my family had wanted to go shopping. Instead of joining them, I decided to spend my afternoon relaxing in the van. I spent around 7 hours in there, completely isolated. And I’d never been more at peace in my life. This was my period of seclusion, my initiation. 

I want to reach this level of serenity again. I want to wrap it around me until it becomes me, until it’s all I feel.
