Six years ago, at this same time of the year, I was already done with my selection of the finishing touches of our house.

Our weekends lately have been pretty unusual. Saturdays are mostly spent out (instead of idyllic weekends), as we still have no clue if we will really find a way to complete our big project. All I can say is that, as of now, even with a very high inventory, none of them ‘speak’ to us, [...]
