THE Lounge by Moon Thyme Journal
People find lounges to relax, chat, work, etc. But why not do those at home? Perhaps because we look for temporary escapes from home. The idea emerged when I both couldn’t return home for some time in 2024, so I went to lot of lounges in the buildings of friends. We talked, brought wine and drank out of mugs. Later, the lounges became THE Lounge, an inside joke, as well as an icon, a shelter. Sometimes we need a change of scene. (There’s also a podcast, on Spotify!)
