bon iver

on saturday afternoon i received a message online from a girl named marija who i had never met asking if i'd like to go see a bon iver concert for free. the next morning before the sun rose we drove for four hours to chicago. her and her father and sister were so lovely and nice. we walked around the city during the day and in the evening marija and i went to the concert. bon iver is my very very favorite musical artist and the concert was indescribable, probably the best thing i've ever been to ever. here are some photographs from the surprise trip. i feel so lucky.
so much love

  8. It's so interesting to see these photos because I was JUST at Chicago with photographs of all the same things as well! Small, small world.
