on holiday mode

We’re still at the airport security queues. Just joking! We eventually got to the beach.

After all unpacking ( I realized I actually brought so much clothes that I don’t expect to wear any twice for the two weeks), and much needed commute recharge, we head to the beach as priority.

My beach days have officially started.

It’s now all about dozing off or reading in the sun (while absorbing all available Vitamin D).

Following by a timeless blood flow stimulation therapy, dipping the full body in the cold sea. – I actually had a BPM warning on my watch! –

And what better skin exfoliator than the sun burnt Atlantic sand? Ah! I just can’t wait to retire…

The same as at the airport, my fascination by human behaviour is undeniable.

As I lay down and close my eyes to snooze for a while, I hear the voices and evesdrop the conversations nearby.

When you’re on the beach you get to “observe” people’s habits, how they treat each other.

I find people’s behaviours tell a lot about their personality. How loud people are, what words they use. All these features reveal a lot about a person.

I listen to how they discipline their children, if they’re soft or abrupt, how the children respond. It’s like listening to a bed time story.
