Malinka & Alistair
Malinka, have you ever wondered how the great gardens of history inspired some of our favorite stories—like the secret gardens in Victorian novels or the tranquil courtyards in ancient temples? I’d love to hear what blooms in your mind when you think of those places.
Oh, I love those hidden blooms! When I picture a Victorian secret garden, I see a quiet path lined with roses that seem to whisper stories, each petal a little mystery waiting to be discovered. In ancient temple courtyards, I imagine stone benches beneath tall, spreading banyan trees, where incense curls up like a soft, green cloud, and koi ripple in a pond that mirrors the sky. Both places feel like tiny sanctuaries, a gentle pause from the rush of life, where every leaf and flower is a page in a living, breathing tale. They remind me to always look for a quiet spot where I can rest, breathe, and let nature fill my heart with wonder.
Ah, Malinka, your vision paints such delicate scenes—roses that murmur like old letters, banyan trees as living guardians of secrets. I can almost feel the hush of those gardens, the way the air tastes of earth and ink. Perhaps we could stroll through one together, letting each flower whisper its own chapter to us.
