Good morning!

It’s Sunday. For our nature Respite, we’ve tiptoed back over to London to gaze upon a tree that is so grand, it has a name: The Brunswick Plane.

For more than 200 years, this tree has been growing in Brunswick Square Gardens in Bloomsbury. Which means there’s a very high likelihood that nearby residents J.M. Barrie, E.M. Forster, John Ruskin, and Virginia Woolf may have stood in this very spot and paused, as we are now, to marvel and listen.

“Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth.”

―Herman Hesse

Onwards we go,
