And this Christmas got me thinking… Happy holidays everyone!

It’s Christmas day and I am far away from my family. Me and my flatmate spend the first few hours of the day together but she starts playing Assassins Creed Origins and after half an hour of watching her I decide to head out for a walk.
I feel like taking pictures so I grab my camera before stepping out of the house. The weather is nice, chilly but not overwhelming, after all it’s been winter for…
