How often do you wander around your close environment and really appreciate the little things … the simple things … that make it what it is?

No matter where I am on my nomadic journey I look for the beauty in my surroundings. Even in the harshest environment it’s there to be found – if you’re looking! 👀

We really don’t have to go anywhere to enjoy the simple things, all we need to do is look around us. Let’s use this enforced isolation to appreciate our own backyard.
