love this. something that struck me over the years was: how some places felt very easy to have a relationship with -at least on the surface- while some others felt uncatchable at first and were kinda demanding you some efforts before opening up. then i started to wonder how it depended on the people: like how fast locals are welcoming you home and sharing their lives with you or not.

I've been captivated by the idea of genius loci for a while now, such a useful shorthand for that sense of place that you describe so nicely! It's what guides my writing (and living) too. "Fierce see-ers" is also great. I'm a big fan of Macfarlane and was introduced to Nan Shepherd's exquisite writing through his.
