Grr! I've never been to Greece, alas! Got as far as Brindisi, but was too busy exploring Italy to take a ferry to Greece. And music definitely brings back memories for me. Yanni takes me to a warm German summer, wine and fresh pasta on the patio. Carlos Santana's Supernatural takes me to Germany in winter, Christmas markets, and my new car. Creed's "With Arms Wide Open" takes me to Vicenza and the pride I felt at finally driving through the city without fear (seriously, driving in Italy was like driving in a huge bumper car race!). Hawaiian music takes me to the years I lived in Hawaii (finally, the music lines up with the place, LOL). I could go on and on! Smells evoke memories too. Fresh, sweet hay makes me think of my childhood and the horses I used to have.... Sigh, I wrote response and then it got lost when I clicked submit. Grr!

I think that's part of the reason I love writing Presents--it's a chance to go to places like Greece without ever leaving my desk ;) My current WIP is set on a fictional Greek island based on the one I went to on that ferry so many years ago!

Thanks for all your comments. Sadly, Christina, the photo isn't mine, although it does take me back. My photos from that trip are packed away in storage in another state! I agree music can definitely bring back memories, as do certain smells. I wrote in my post that is not showing up that the smell of cut grass brings me back to childhood. xx Kate For some reason my comment is not displaying–sorry, everyone! Thanks for all your comments.
