Good morning my dear friends, and happy Tuesday.
We’re already about a couple of weeks away from Christmas. Again.
It’s incredible how fast time goes by without even noticing, and suddenly we’re at the end of another year, when honestly it feels like we just started it.
Today, though, I mostly want to say thank you.
The newsletter has just passed four hundred subscribers. Four hundred! A number that, when I started writing a couple of years ago, I would’ve never imagined.
And it’s not really the number itself — I’ve said this many times — but what it means.
It means that more than four hundred people, every week, choose to read what I write and look at the photos I share.
And that’s what makes me happy.
Knowing that you spend a few minutes with my stories, my images, my little reflections, and all the monthly features —Unpublished, Inside the Photo, and Tamara’s My Travel Diary Chronicles, where she takes us to beautiful places I’ll probably never see in person — that’s something that truly means a lot to me.
So: thank you.
Really.
It’s a milestone I never expected to reach, and it fills me with gratitude.
The time for end-of-year reflections will come, maybe in a couple of weeks.
It’s not a ritual I love very much — not because it’s useless, but because instead of looking back and counting what I’ve done, I prefer asking myself: okay, and what can I do next year? Where can I go from here?
For now, I’ll leave those thoughts for another post, and I just want to thank you for your support, your presence, your messages, your curiosity.
And I can already tell you that the next Unpublished will be very Christmas-themed: it comes from a set I shot last year and never shared. So it’s finally its moment.
I hope to see more and more of you around, and I hope I can keep giving you articles, images, and small reflections that you’ll find useful… or simply nice to read during a quiet moment. Even just two or three minutes of relax, scrolling through a photo or catching a sentence that stays with you and maybe comes back when you need it.
Sending you a big hug.
See you next week with the Christmas Unpublished.
Take care and talk soon!
