As we pass these beautiful villages built on these lakes, all I can think is yeah, I could see myself being happy here. The worst a lake can do is flood, but the ocean is salty, difficult to swim in, has tsunami’s and hurricanes and sharks and jellyfish - AND they can flood too.
It’d be so nostalgic bringing my kids to the lake to swim, as my parents often took me during my summers as a kid. My parents always swam too. It seemed obvious then that they would, but looking back on it now, I really am glad they did - that they didn’t just sit on the sand and watch us. That’s right, lakes also have sand, huh? ♡
I especially love the rolling green mountains, some with even snow on their caps. It all makes me feel calm and serene, and so ultimately small in the best way you can feel that way.
A lot of these towns have clock towers too. I like clock towers.
