Austria & Italy

"A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles." — Tim Cahill.

The weight of time sits gently here, in the stone streets and candlelit corners, in the echoes of laughter carried across centuries. Austria—where the mountains hum a quiet, ancient melody, and the air is crisp with the scent of pine and nostalgia. Where friendship, unshaken by distance, folds you in like you never left.

And then, the Dolomites in autumn—where the world burns gold and amber, where jagged peaks rise through morning mist like a dream still forming. The air is sharp, the larches glow, and it feels like walking through a painting. Life slows.

Some places stay with you, but some people are home. This was a journey of both.
