Today for class my professor took us to this ancient hazel wood to explore. Our assignment was to totally immerse ourselves in the lush, overwhelming environment and think about our response to it. It was an incredible exercise to be still in nature, listening to every rustle of leaves, or a bee buzzing in and out of a moss-coated tree trunk in the distance. I documented the time through sketching, meditation, and photography.
Afterwards, we drove to the Burren Perfumery, where we explored their tantalizing selection of perfume and lotion, their herb garden, and their coffee shop featuring some of the best carrot cake I've ever tasted. What a lovely way to spend an afternoon. I feel very lucky to be here at this school.
