This is beautiful, can't believe you got me tearing up over a river. I knew the Thames too, but it's cleaner, younger self in Oxford, before it reaches the big city and becomes jaded and focused.
Thank you Kate that means so much! And oh, I love your version of the Thames! Young and hopeful in Oxford, before it puts on its serious face for London. It’s amazing how rivers hold all these different selves, depending on where you meet them. 🩵
This was such a delight to read 💙 thank you for such a lovely piece of writing, it is a beautiful testiment to the central role of water in our lives. So happy to have stumbled upon your page here this morning! :)
Thank you so much. I’m so glad it found you this morning! Water does have a way of winding into the heart of things, doesn’t it? I really appreciate you reading and taking the time to say hello. I'm happy to have you here :)
Another wonderful piece of writing Carrie! Thank you for making me think about my own connection with the rivers of my life. You bring the joy of nature and humanity into my inbox with your honest and thoughtful musings. When’s your book coming out? X
Haha, thank you so much Lis! I'm so glad it made you think about your own rivers too… they have such a quiet way of shaping us, don’t they? And as for the book… perhaps one day! For now, I’m just following the current and seeing where the writing flows. How's your book and camper adventures coming along?!

That would be lovely. I need to get away from the house definitely! 🚐

Going with the flow - like it! Book evolving very slowly. More van trips planned now the weather’s getting brighter. 🙏
Ah yes, I'm a fair weather camper too! We could do a camper writing retreat this summer?!
