We went for a little hike today. Fall has hit us hard and for the 1.5 hour ride the car windows were filled with foliage. The sharp-shinned hawks were catching the light over the mountain and we sat for a short while just enjoying the sight. Then we had a home to see.
House-hunting is interesting. Upon arrival I get an immediate feel for the place that I sometimes wish was transferable through the online photos. Sometimes the owners are there and communication is a little weird ~ they are leaving, for various reasons, and we are strangers entering and inspecting their private home. Some houses are filled with sorrow and sadness, and others with delightful nooks and whimsy. There is always a story.
I'm waiting to recognize the one we fit into.

i'll take your current house, thanks! ;)
I think the right home will definitely let you know when you've found it.
I know how you feel - I have intuitions about house feelings too. I can't wait to see the one!

oh goodness! i love love love that image of you with the binocular/camera bag. and i know exactly what you mean. a home's energy tells so much of a story.
I'm hunting as well, but thinking of leaving my one-person nest to be in a four-person home. It will be different and a little bit scary, but I think I'm ready for it. Good luck with your hunt!
I love house hunting...we'll be doing the same soon. What I love about it is how intuition completely takes over. You can feel whether a place is right for you or not. As you say, you can feel the sadness, or the light, the dark...
Much luck to you as you find a new place to call home...

went for a little hike myself last week. and came home across the highway with such clarity.
your home will find you. and you'll breathe such a sigh of relief when you arrive there.
you are so right ~ there is a palpable feeling of recognition when you find your home or when it finds you. xo
