Five items or things I lust after
Today I'm to write about five items or things I lust after. Some of those are things I've once had and miss, some are things I see myself having. Either way, I've arranged them in the order of preference, in case the Universe is listening.
1. Tesla model S.
No surprises here. I love this car, not because it's a cool car, but for so many other reasons as well. The idea behind it, the meaning the whole design process from scratch holds, the man behind it as well. These days no other car simply impresses me, other than other models of Tesla. Anything else seems like old world somehow.
2. A huge wall-sized bookcase full of books of my choosing.
Ideally, something that looks like this:
3. Sauna.
For many, sauna is a luxury. For a Finn like myself, it's a normal thing to have. I miss it a lot and I've told my husband having my own sauna in the Netherlands is my price of moving here. I'm here for over ten years and still waiting for my sauna though...
4. A cozy fireplace.
My childhood home used to have a fireplace and I loved every time my mom would lit it up. It made the home smell and feel so safe and I honestly miss having a fireplace of my own.
5. A smallish rowing boat.
I love being by the waterside, being able to swim when it feels like it, being able to jump on a boat when it feels like a good way to spend the afternoon. There is plenty of water all over the Netherlands, but I've never rowed a boat here, only peddled one that resembled a boat.
I get that these are not some small items, but why not dream a bit bigger? I'd also like a pool or a house by the lake/seaside, a new phone, but only five things made it to the list.
