I've had a weird longing to escape for the last few days. Not to pick up and abandon everyone and everything but more just a touch of wanderlust. 

We went to see my Grandparents this weekend, which involves a train journey and by some miracle my baby slept on the return journey so I sat quietly at my window seat and admired the view. They live in a part of the UK that is incredibly flat and has lots of farm land but the views are still beautiful. The sky was blue with just a few clouds and the sun was bursting through onto the fields, coating the tops of the trees at the edges with a golden glow. The train was, (happily) rather empty so I just got to sit there in near silence, admiring the lovely view and it has helped a little. 

I still have a slight urge to rent a log cabin in the forest though 😅
