Introduction
Ate So Much, Danced So Much, Loved So Much is made by Nicole Goux. It can be bought for $5 at her website. I THINK I bought this book the the 2016 Emerald City Comic Con (I’m getting to the point where I’m forgetting when I get my books oh no).
Thoughts
If you’ve been around my blog or me for any period of time, you would know I love traveling. Traveling with my sketchbooks is my way of connecting with where I am, making sense of the places I’ve been and capturing moments I can look back on with wonder.
Ate So Much, Danced So Much, Loved So Much reminds me a lot of my own travel sketchbooks, full of writings, drawings, and jumping from topic to topic. It follows Nicole’s 2 week trip to France and Brussels and the wonder and awe of traveling alone in a new place. She talks about the strangers she met, her AirBnB, and connecting with people even with a language barrier. Her writings are supplemented with gorgeous ink urban sketches of people and places. As readers we can peek a little into the trip and catch a glimpse of France, as well as the effect it must have had on Nicole.
