Travel theme: Angles

It is said that everybody has an angle, so this week I’ve decided to play the angles and see what travel shots I came up with. First up, appropriate for the day that’s in it, some elegant, peaceful, reflective angles from the 9/11 Memorial at Ground Zero in Manhattan.

A sassy little triangular restroom at the start of the trail up Sauk Mountain.

A dreamy blue geometric pool at Hearst Castle in California. I want a backyard like theirs.

Last, but not least, a symphony of angles at Seattle’s unbelievably beautiful Central Library.

In writing, one searches, and that is what keeps one writing, that one sees and experiences things from another angle entirely; one experiences oneself during the process of writing. – Herta Müller

There is some level on which this life must occasionally become repugnant and unappetizing to you and you must step back from it. And then you have a new relationship with it, and then you step back into it from a different angle – with a new appetite – and then you find the next leg of your journey. – John Patrick Shanley

About ailsapm

Hi there! I’m Ailsa Prideaux-Mooney. I’ve lived in many places, and travelled to many more. I had a lot of fun getting there and being there, wherever there happened to be at the time. I climbed a castle wall in Czesky Krumlov, abseiled down cliffs to go caving in the west of Ireland, slept on the beach in Paros, got chased by a swarm of bees in Vourvourou (ok that wasn’t fun, but it was exciting), learned flower arranging in Tokyo, found myself in the middle of a riot in Seoul, learned to snowboard in Salzburg, got lost in a labyrinth in Budapest and had my ice cream stolen by a gull in Cornwall. And I’m just getting started. If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, I’d love you to follow my travelogue - wheresmybackpack.com - and remember, anyone who tries to tell you it’s a small world hasn’t tried to see it all.
