Here is another photo, that I took on our recent trip to Charleston, South Carolina. I loved this row of historic houses in downtown, with the pretty frontyards and window boxes and all the beautiful tall trees. I often wondered why I felt such a strong sense of well-being in Charleston and I believe it is because there is so much beauty in terms of the mostly historic architecture and the tremendous amount of greenery. I simply loved being there and strolling around the downtown streets for hours. Many of you, who commented on my previous posts about Charleston, seemed to share my feelings for this charming city. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all loved to be where we actually live? Taking Charleston as an example, would it make a difference to our quality of live, when we all would take as good care as we can of the trees in our neighborhoods and gardens, plant up beautiful front- and backyards or even just a window box or a container? And also make our houses as pretty as we can, may they be historic or not, maybe starting small by choosing a nice color for the front door? I believe it would make a big difference. What do you do think? Am I just a hopeless dreamer or can we consciously collectively as a community make our cities more beautiful and therefore increase their livability? #organicgardendreams #charleston #southcarolina #downtowncharleston #historichomes #historichouses #oldhome #oldhomes #oldhouse #oldhouses #prettyfrontyards #prettyfrontyard #tree #trees #beautifulcity #cottages #cottage #historiccharleston #windowbox #windowboxes #charlestonsouthcarolina #pinkhouse #pinkhouses #pink #pinkhome #frontyard #beautiful #beautifulhouse #beautifultree #crepemyrtle (at Charleston, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTpHUB0L1Y8/?utm_medium=tumblr
