I used to know a woman who wanted to get that T.S. Eliot coffee spoons quote tattooed on her arm, written on the handle of a coffee spoon. I'm not sure if she ever did get it, though. Also, I visited Gdansk a few years ago and it was beautiful, hope you enjoy your visit there!

Thank you, Jacob! I'm curious: what's one city where you felt immediately "at home"?

San Sebastián is probably the first one that comes to mind for me, as I think you mentioned yourself in a photo of it that I posted not too long ago. That was a very immediate sense of homeliness. I also felt very at home in Melbourne, but it took a couple of months to feel that way (I was there for 6 months).

It's taken me most of my life to feel at home in my actual hometown (Liverpool), but over the past few years I've finally grown to love it.
