away. over here.





when i went to point reyes a few weeks ago, i stayed in an old mansion built in the 1930s. the four-story home was converted into a retreat center and named after saint columba. it's nested in the beautiful town of inverness, tucked away for retreatants to come and rest. the space is welcoming because it is exactly what it is; there are no pretenses there. being at st. columba feels like putting on my most comfortable pair of big soft socks. (except when it's super dark and my mind makes up dark scenarios so i get freaked out.)
