Life in the Countryside

In: Switzerland, photography

We’re in a bit of an in-between stage at the moment - we’re half moved out from our flat, half packed up, and half getting ready to move back to Glasgow. In the meantime we’re hanging out in a wee house in the country, with J revising away for finals and me doing my best [...]
