My little "nook"

Just when I have finally found peace living alone, my time living alone is almost up as this semester will be coming to an end in only a month. I thought I would document my first solo place a bit here in order to remember it.

My very favorite part about this apartment which sits on Main Street across from the lake in a little college town in Wisconsin is the 18 foot ceilings, the old school B&W tile floor in the kitchen and the little "nook" in the living room loft I created. Since the ceilings are so high, I assume the loft is about 15 feet up in the air, just big enough for a twin size mattress.

 I filled this little, comfy space with a lot of traveling memories, and it is the perfect place to read, write, and of course - dream...

All the pictures on the wall are from magazines from Spain or France.

The white, sparkly hanging shawl is from my favorite vintage store in Paris.
