Live Your Best Lives

The wind was strong on the top of the mountain, and I could hear the clear tinkling of cowbells.
During my time in Dali, I stayed in a seaside village. Prices were cheap, and life was simple. In the mornings, I'd go to the village entrance to buy groceries, and in the afternoons, I'd go for a stroll along the beach. If I wanted to visit the bustling old town, I'd just walk there.
