More Feature Stories
Vermont felt like a deep breath I didn’t know I needed. The kind of place where the light falls differently, where a winding road through trees feels like it’s leading somewhere both familiar and brand new. I remember thinking, “This is what it means to feel quietly held by a place.” It wasn’t flashy. But it stayed with me.
What stayed with me were the small, steady comforts: the smell of woodsmoke on a crisp morning, general stores with creaky floors and warm pie, fields glowing gold just before dusk. Whether I was hiking through maple-lined trails or sipping cider by a window while it snowed, Vermont gave me room to feel present. I left with my shoulders lower and my senses more awake.
