i like to think of an album the night before that i haven’t listened to in a while or intentionally sit in a different train car or eat my little breakfast at a different stage of the trip. mix it up on purpose!
Preferably to a niece or nephew as this is very much uncle vibes. And preferably not a new book. I think this is the chic’est gift you can ever give anyone. They can get a pint or something with the tenner while they read the book. Sick.
