-Soft rumbles of the waves can be heard against the dock.
Maya Rousseau stepped off the ferry, the scent of salt and sea clinging to her skin. A faint mist hung in the air, blurring the line between the sky and water, where distant islands floated like ghosts on the horizon.
She then adjusted the strap of her weathered bag, heavy with brushes and sketchbooks, in another hand, her luggage with the rest of her belongings.
Breathing in the foreign air— a mixture of brine and something ancient that stirred her artistic spirit.
Maya's POV:
It had been months— no, years of traveling to enhance my art by traveling from one place to another.
Delphi, Greece was the next destination, as my wandering mind wanted to wander off to learn cultures as well as create art to showcase the beauty I saw along the way.
"Miss, do you need a taxi?"
A taxi driver asked as he ran up to Maya, who was near the dock.
"Ah— yes please.."
she replied and was guided to the taxicab stand nearby.
Maya then entered the back of the taxi.
"Where are ya headed?" the driver asked,
"Acropole Delphi hotel."
A short pause with the taxi driver as he started the car
"I'm guessing you're going to the archeological museum?"
He then broke the silence.
"Oh, how'd you know?
"Well foreigners tend to choose that hotel since its just a 5 minute drive, 10 minutes if you like walking"
he chuckled.
"Well that explains it... but thanks for the extra info."
With that, Maya's journey begins.
