Los Angeles House - Spanish & Moroccan & French Influences
As the weather warms, I get a nostalgic tug to be somewhere on the other side of the world. Right about now my mind wanders to a different era in my life. Summer. That desire is now sense memory and the mind and images, scents and music can take me there.
Vacations of the past, and the way I am hard wired to plan and wander influence the season. I am home and creating a place from books and images, countries visited and ideas. I usually move very fast to get somewhere slow and more interesting than my own backyard. Although it may be true that diving in Fiji for instance or lingering on a limestone cliff in Turkey or sitting at an Italian café on the beach sounds pretty good, at least in my dreams, there is something simple and comforting about sticking around for a quiet hot August.

Some Armchair Travel For Us
In the hopes of importing a little Mediterranean into my abode, I look at style and design books from all over the world. I consider the arid beauty of Mexico or the Mediterranean as I get ideas on how to live at home with style and global reminders. Here's my breakfast room after looking at Greece Style
My Breakfast Room
One way to enjoy a little armchair travel and gear up for later adventures is the illustrious coffee table book. Taschen & Rizzoli have some amazing decor and travel images that help.
