In addition to being home to Mozart, Salzburg, Austria is the setting of "The Sound of Music." So as a little homage, here are a few of my favorite things:
Big bouquets of fragrant fresh flowers
Earl Gray Tea
French Bulldogs
A mug of Gluhwein at a German Christmas Market
My Mother's Starlight Twist Cookies
Finding my hotel room has some unexpected luxury
Elderflower Presse
Lingering eye contact with a sexy stranger and a shared smile
An entire town's church bells chiming at once
Being able to give directions in a recently unfamiliar city
Bubble baths
Finding the perfect gift for a friend
Being joyously surprised by a new place
Rediscovering a place I've been before
Receiving calls, notes and invitations from friends
Twinkling lights illuminating a winter night
A long train journey
The sound of waves crashing on the shore outside my bedroom window
Feeling self-reliant and grown-up and hopeful
Serendipity
