Webster Orientation / Copacabana



Very happy to have met a lot of lovely people during the Webster orientation two weeks ago! 
Last on the orientation program was dinner in Scheveningen. We ate delicious food, played some 
volleyball, and sat on the beach talking with an occasional song or two in between. I'm so fortunate 
to be with such a friendly group of people!

Noordwijk Beach

Maybe it is the memories
the change of pace that brings us there
the sense of vacation
maybe the smell of the place
the sights of the gulls, the dunes, the grasses
but oh it is the feel of it, 
the crunch and slide of it
the feeling of beach sand
so different from dirt, soil, loam
no, not earthy, moist, rich, 
but oh so granular and gritty
even when wet,
moveable paper spreading under toes
sliding beneath the soles
smoothing my skin
clearing my mind
unburdening me of the rest
drawing me to the tactile, the feel
of beach sand

Hannah / Portrait

This is Hannah. We went to school together in Indonesia. She came to Holland this summer for my
sister's fantastical wedding and since then we've been obsessing over photo-shoots. So far, we've only
accomplished one. We went to the forest with our little blue dresses, props, and camera. We took turns
taking photos of each other as ideas popped into our heads one by one. Her version of the photo-shoot
can be found here: Forest Fun
