"I wondered, for the first time in my life, if life was worth all the work it took to live. What exactly made it worth it? What's so horrible about being dead forever, and not feeling anything, and not even dreaming? What's so great about feeling and dreaming?"
- Jonathan Safran Foer (Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close)

I'm Philippa, 24, and I'm from London.

A photograph I took in a Russian Doll shop in Prague. I don’t remember how it started, but whenever my sisters visit a foreign country they endeavour to bring me back a Russian Doll. Imagine my joy when I found a beautiful shop dedicated to selling just these dolls.

The road that we walked past every day in Prague, that I named “Revolutionary Road”. Because everything is related to books.

Greetings from Prague! It’s a cold and rainy day, but the city is still beautiful. I’m excited to see it in the more pleasant weather we are expecting tomorrow.

Ok, so this photo from Saturday night may be the worst photo of Margaret Atwood ever taken, but it is my photo of Margaret Atwood and my proof that I was in that room and for this reason I love it!
