Ah, summer! It’s time for bright colours, juicy fruits, joyful moments and…playful jewels. When I am on an enticing trip, I like to move away from the well-known tourist paths and explore the hidden treasures of the city. This time, I came across a cute little bakery that opened its doors for me – welcoming me in and coaxing me to indulge in some mouth-watering delights. A pretty tablecloth that borrowed its hues from the happy sky, an ornate cup of fragrant fruit tea, the overwhelming sweet smell of delicious desserts – and a selection of jewellery for an evening stroll. I want to stay frozen in this moment, forever!
